GOAL: $1300
RAISED SO FAR: $1285
UPDATE: Thanks to everyone's generous donations, we have raised enough to cover everyone's bail!
If you can still contribute, any funds over the goal will go towards legal costs and ongoing expenses for the case.

The water protectors at Standing Rock issued a call to action to support them, so Atlanta stood up. Now they are facing police repression too. After the train tracks were cleared two people were arrested and are being held on heavy charges just for being in the area.
The Atlanta Solidarity Fund is coordinating the efforts to bail them out, but we need your contributions. One is out already but the other is being held on $9000 bail, which means it will take about $1100 to bond him out. If there are any funds remaining after we get them out they will go into the solidarity fund to bail out future demonstrators.
UPDATE: ASF is not a charitable bail fund. Due to Ga. Code § 17-6-15 donations to ASF can no longer legally be used to pay for the release of accused persons. Assistance with bonding company fees is provided through another non-profit based on a one-time grant ASF made in June 2024, prior to the new change in law.
Further donations will go toward ongoing support for those facing repression.
