On March 21, 2023 hundreds of people marched to Friendship Park.  We called on President Biden to stop Donald Trump's border wall. And we called on California Governor Newsom and U.S. Senators Alex Padilla and Diane Feinstein to join this fight.

 

XX courageous members stepped onto Federal property.  They were trying to do what is normal at Peace Arch Park and several other parks on the US-Canada border. They were trying to meet up with friends at what is meant to be a truly international park- Friendship Park.   

 

These actions of nonviolent civil disobedience resulted in the arrest of X friends of Friendship Park – name 1, name 2, 3, 4, 5. They were detained and released after being given citations.

 

The Friends Of Friendship Park has fronted $XXXX to ensure that these activists were detained as briefly as possible.

 

Can you help cover these costs?  Our goal is to raise $xx,000 to support our ongoing efforts to stop border wall construction at Friendship Park.

 

Your contribution now will pay these fines and fees, and additional funds will be used to cover the costs associated with these actions.
