Recently, the media has captured the higher rate of injustices the Black and Brown community has been suffering for years in comparison to other demographics. The purpose of the criminal justice reform events committee is to remind people that Black and Brown lives still matter even though the protests are less frequent. This is an everyday fight. Representatives of the NAACP Young Adult Action Committee (YAAC) and the MBAWNY have met several times since May of 2020 to discuss the details of this committee. The representatives of the respective organizations are Alaina Jones, Brittany Jones, Sarah Washington and Jamila A. Lee. The Criminal Justice Reform committee will focus solely on planning a continuum of peaceful social events. 
 
In order to enact effective change, we need your help. This is not an initiative we can continue to attack on our own. This is not a black or white issue. This is an institutional issue. We are asking that you contribute to our justice reform campaign and not let lack of resources be the reason we cannot effectuate meaningful change for future generations. 
 
The Buffalo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has served the City of Buffalo and the Western New York region for over 100 years. Together, it is our goal to raise enough funds and a base of volunteers to enable us to continue bringing awareness and change to the WNY community. The goals of justice and equality that both of our organizations have fought for in the past must be continued. The MBAWNY is a 501(c)(6) non-profit organization. Any sponsorships we receive will be put into a separate account, which was created specifically for this initiative, not for the benefit of our members. As a sponsor, the funds will be used to buy materials to help spread our message. One way we plan to spread our message is through the purchase of t-shirts, masks, lawn signs, and other paraphernalia for the Western New York region, which would allow us to spread our message through a visual platform across our region. As a sponsor, your organization will be advertised on our website and additional online platforms. We also plan to provide continued updates on our efforts and give sponsors notice about all planned events. Your sponsorship will help make these initiatives a possibility. As a sponsor, you will be apart of the New York Social Justice Collective. 

Without the support of community partners and stakeholders, we will not be able to support our initiatives for our justice reform campaign. We need your support and we hope that you will join us to help make tomorrow look better than yesterday.
