ICYMI: A Politically Charged Week
Posted: by The Alt Editing Staff
This week could be seen by some as a catastrophe. Everyone at The Alternative has been sleep deprived all week, trying to be as active in our communities as possible. Amidst the turmoil though, lies an undying flame; our community will never give up on those in need. For this week’s ICYMI, we’ve decided to list all of the organizations and artists donating profits they make to great causes, such as Planned Parenthood, The National Immigration Law Center, and more.
Labels & Organizations:
Run For Cover donating Bandcamp proceeds to Planned Parenthood
Square of Opposition donating shirt proceeds to Planned Parenthood, NILC, and Earth Crisis
Flesh and Bone Design offering free design work to organizations acting out against Trump
Father/Daughter Records donating Bandcamp proceeds to Planned Parenthood
Near Mint donating proceeds to GSA Network, RAINN, and the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe
Really Rad Records donating Bandcamp proceeds to the Trevor Project

Citrus City Records donating tape and digital proceeds to The Young Centre

We wanted to give a huge thanks to Gold Flake Paint for helping us compile this list. Seeing so much solidarity from other countries is a heartwarming feeling.
IMPORTANT: If you know of any additional organizations donating to a good cause, let us know so we can add them to the list.
