Grooving on a Sunday Afternoon Fundraiser for the Inland Civil Rights Institute
The climate for civil rights has become increasingly uncertain.
In these times, it is critical for people to stand up for equal rights for all regardless of race, gender, national origin, age, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.
The Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California is dedicated to protecting our civil rights now and in the future, as well as memoralizing our region’s civil rights history.
But it will take everyone’s help to achieve this goal.
The Civil Rights Institute’s campaign will raise $1 million to build out the Institute’s facilities and $1 million to endow operations.
