Multi-cultural Re-entry
Kinetic Collective is funded as part of We All Rise's Multi-Cultural Re-entry program. We are fundraising to continue this work on Alberta, Hawthorne, and other districts that have witnessed displacement and economic disenfranchisement. We are planning a Pop-Up Business District and will continue to engage the public to identify other community projects.

We All Rise is fundraising for our community work throughout the Portland area. The COVID pandemic, coupled with over a century of oppressive city policy including redlining, disinvestment, and inequitable development resulting in gentrification, have disproportionately impacted BIPOC. Young Portlanders have also suffered from an unequal economic recovery since peak unemployment early in the pandemic.
As Portland recovers from the pandemic, it is essential to center and uplift those voices that have historically been ignored and devalued. Given limited institutional support for the work we are doing, We All Rise is currently fundraising for the following projects. Proceeds from this GoFundMe will be distributed as needed to fund this important work. Any leftover funds will be distributed to the following organizations:
​
Black Resilience Fund
Black Parent Initiative
Portland Homeless Family Solutions
Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization
Old Growth Blockade PNW
Bark (protecting the Mt. Hood National Forest)
350PDX (building a diverse grassroots movement to address the causes of climate disruption in Portland and beyond)
