Dear friends,
War resister Kimberly Rivera, http://www.democracynow.org/2013/4/30/kimberly_rivera_pregnant_mom_of_4,
is being held at the Miramar Brig. She will be giving birth to a baby boy in the next month.
A small, local support group has been visiting Kim regularly since last spring. We have put together enough money to fly Kim's husband and two young children to San Diego in early November.
The plan is to have Mario Rivera here to take custody of the baby once he's born. They will stay with my husband and me until Kim is released sometime in December. Then the young family will fly home to Texas.
WHAT WE NEED:
*We need monetary support to pay for the family's expenses while in San Diego and to fly the family home once Kim is released.
*We also need volunteers that can give the family transportation assistance during their stay.
IF YOU CAN HELP:
*Contact me if you can give transportation assistance.
*If you can help monetarily, our local Vets for Peace are handling donations:
Go to www.sdvfp.org and click on donate. Make sure you leave a note that the donation is for Kim Rivera.
Or, make out checks to SDVFP and mail them to:

Again, make sure you leave a note on the check that the donation is for Kim Rivera.
