Help Farm Workers Win Fair Immigration Reform
And today especially, we fight for humane immigration reform, for bills like the Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits and Security Act. We must insist that the people who feed us not be considered criminals. We must work even harder to ensure that the few protections farm workers have are not taken away.
NFWM Spring Appeal
MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF THOSE WHO PUT FOOD ON OUR TABLES --
This week, the National Farm Worker Ministry is issuing our spring appeal for financial support. You may receive a letter in the mail soon. When you do, please read it carefully or read it online and make as generous a donation as you can by return mail, or make a credit card donation online today through the secure site provided to us by Network for Good
At NFWM we fight alongside thousands of farm workers for better treatment - improved wages, breaks from the heat, pesticide protection, a voice in the workplace. We advocate for stronger laws and greater enforcement of the laws in place.

This spring is a critical time in the immigration reform debate. We need your generous help to continue that work. Rent for our offices in five states costs the Ministry $1,250 a month. An action alert postcard sent to 2500 supporters costs $500. $100 pays the monthly phone bill for one of our organizers.
Our financial resources are low. Please make a tax-deductible donation today to NFWM so we can continue with confidence to ensure that "all men and women share in the good things this earth produces."
In gratitude,
Virginia Nesmith
Executive Director
