MICA Project has announced the kickoff of the ‘1 Month for 200 Lives’ campaign, running during the month of September.  The community organization, committed to working with low-income immigrants to overcome barriers to justice, is launching the effort to coincide with MICA Project’s one-year anniversary on October 5th. 

Co-founder, Nicole Cortes, commented on the ‘1 Month for 200 Lives’ campaign “During the month of September, we are seeking to raise $5,000 from supporters so that we can continue doing this work.  We have an active caseload of over 80 clients, and each of those clients has a spouse, child, or parent who is relying on them.  We are looking for donors to be a part of our next 200 success stories.”
