Michigan Black Mama's Day Bailout (COVID-19 RAPID RESPONSE)

Goal thermometer

In the past, our Black Mamas bailout have been centered on bringing Black Mamas and caregivers home to be with their family for Mothers Day and not locked away in a cage because they cannot pay their bail. With the recent development of the outbreak of COVID-19, The Michigan Black Mama's Bailout Coalition are raising funds for a mass bail out of Black Mamas that are left behind in jails and detention centers and are at a high risk of being exposed to the virus. Donations will go toward bailing out Mamas in Wayne, Oakland and Kalamazoo counties.


Community Partners: Out 4 Life Re-entry, Greater Detroit Democratic Socialists of America, Church of the Messiah, Detroit Justice Center, We the People, Michigan Liberation, Detroit Bail Project, Engage Michigan, Redeeming Kimberly, Advancement Project.


Funds are held by Michigan Liberation, a 501c4 organization. Donations are not tax-deductible. 100% of funds raised on this page will go toward this specific project. Please see below for more details on the project.

  2. This contribution is made from my own funds or the funds of an authorizing corporation or other entity, and the funds are not being provided by any other person or entity.
Teams are assembled to research who is currently being held because they are unable to pay bail, to assist with social service coordination if those bailed out want supportive resources, to ensure the bail process is done properly in each region, and to host a celebration party for our families and communities. 100% of funds raised will go toward this specific project. The research and bail out committee will prioritize Black mamas. In the event that we fundraise an abundance of resources or face obstacles on bailing out specific people, we will have clear criteria and process on who we will bail out next: prioritizing women of color and moms. Any additional resources after the bailouts will be put toward the celebration. We will post updates on the amount fundraised and how it is spent. Michigan Liberation is holding the funds. The organization is a 501c4 organization. Donations are not tax-deductible.
