The People's Advocacy Institute

Freedom Summer Friendraiser


Honor the Legacy. Sustain the Movement.


Freedom Summer wasn't built in a single day. It was sustained by ordinary people who believed that Mississippi and our democracy could be transformed.


Today, that work continues.

The People's Advocacy Institute is building community power across Mississippi through People's Assemblies, youth leadership, participatory defense, healing justice, community safety, and year-round civic engagement.

We invite you to become Freedom Sustainers - monthly donors who believe freedom is not a moment in history, but a commitment we make every month.
