Seeks funds for Lummi canoe trip
The Lummi people have taken a strong stand against efforts to turn Cherry Point into a shipping terminal for coal.
I believe we should acknowledge and support their decision to maintain our local waters for fishing, for clean water and air for everyone and for sustaining the environment.
Did you know that the Lummi Youth Canoe Family have been invited to Paris in December for the talks on climate change? There they will join other activists speaking out about the implications of global warming.
We can support the Lummi in this effort while also promoting a better world. Make a pledge on gofundme.com, type in Lummi Youth Canoe Family and help make their trip possible.
