Neighbors to Save Rivington House
Jun 14, 2016
Dear Supporters of Rivington House, We have been deeply touched by the level of support and backing we have received for the campaign to Save Rivington House. Thank you. As our petition jumps over the 1,000 mark and investigations into the case and the parties involved continue [1], we are expanding our efforts on the ground as well. One way we''re doing this is by collecting stories about Rivington House from the residents, care workers, relatives, and neighbors who experienced firsthand what a vital community service it provided. *Would you be willing to share more of your stories and experiences of Rivington House with us?* Many of you have left short comments on the petition about your own history with the home. But we know there are many more stories out there—and that these personal accounts have the power to move hearts and minds and Save Rivington House. *Email info@rivhouse.org to tell us more about the time you or a loved one lived or worked at Rivington House and what the place meant to you.* We'll share your stories with elected officials, the companies involved and, with your permission, reporters who have been asking us for more stories this. Finally, we'd like to invite all of you—especially former Rivington House residents and care workers—to a community event celebrating Juneteenth in the M'Finda Kalunga Garden, at Sara D. Roosevelt Park, Sunday, June 19th from Noon-3PM, where we'll be talking more about the campaign and our next steps. Find out more: http://sdrpc.mkgarden.org Thanks for all you are doing to bring Rivington House back to the community it was built to serve. We'll be in touch with more opportunities to engage with the campaign soon.
