Black Lives Matter
Silence is not an option: BLACK LIVES MATTER.
We commit to standing with the Black community. To doing the work necessary to be antiracists and worthy allies. And to not normalizing the unconscionable.
Gramercy Post will match all donations made through this form up to $5,000, and contribute an extra 4% of all donations to cover ActBlue's processing fees.
If we can help any organizers or organizations share their message in this fight, please get in touch with us at hello [at] gramercypost.com. We have microphones and know how to use them.
UPDATE:
We blew past our $5K goal in less than 24 hours!! So many thanks to all who have contributed!!
As of 8pm on Tuesday, June 2nd, this page had received $9,315 in donations. (INCREDIBLE!) Gramercy contributed an additional $6,130: our $5K initial match, $530 in employee contribution matches, and $600 to cover ActBlue’s 4% processing fees.
While our initial matching dollars have been exhausted, these causes remain vital and this is not a one-day commitment. We’ll continue to match 5% of any donations made through this page beyond the $15,445 it was at after our initial match.
Thank you all so, so much.
