Columbia Legal Services

OVERVIEW

For decades, Columbia Legal Services has represented communities facing poverty and oppression. Through various legal tools available, we work together to achieve social and economic justice for all, and reveal and end actions that harm communities we serve. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic forced us to re-imagine our annual fundraiser, Imagine Justice, as a virtual event and we made the most out of it, bringing together our supporters, client community, allies, and new friends for a fun and dynamic celebration. On October 14, 2021, we continued to host our event virtually and, for the first time, made it simultaneously available in English on YouTube Livestream and in Spanish on Facebook Live.

We’re grateful to everyone who supported and contributed to 2021 Imagine Justice! We imagined what justice looks like when we transform, not just reform, systems of injustice. Let’s continue to imagine how we can build a just and equitable future together. We set a fundraising goal of $75,000 and you helped us surpass it – in the lead up to, during, and after our annual event, we raised $89,000! Just as important, we continue to build community. Thanks to everyone who shared their story, joined the lively chat discussion, invited friends to join us, and donated to support our legal and policy advocacy.

We were especially honored to celebrate our 2021 Visionaries of the Year, Jose Martinez and Patricia Aguilar, who helped win overtime protection for tens of thousands of agricultural workers across Washington.

We also want to hear what you thought of the event. Please take a couple minutes to fill out this brief survey – available in English and Spanish – and let us know what you enjoyed and how we can improve.
