Vigil in Flushing this Sunday
Stand up against hate!

Join our vigil to unite our community against violence, racism, and hate.

Here’s a way to help out our neighbors whose
small businesses have recently been devastated by a major first on 74th
Street in Jackson Heights:
Chhaya and DRUM are calling upon Hate Free Zones Queens
Allies to support those affected by the 74th St fire that devastated
several Asian-owned small businesses in the heart of Jackson Heights. If you
have received a stimulus payment recently, and are looking to redistribute it
locally to neighbors in need, here's an
important way. More
information can be found on the online
fundraising page.
