August – September Announcements

  1. Our 2021 Annual Report is available! Last year was an exciting year at KBI, including an Executive Director transition, the initiation of our strategic planning process, and coordinated efforts build a world where Migration with Dignity is possible. You can click here to view the report.
  2. Join us as a volunteer for our next Annual Dinner. You can be instrumental in bringing to life our next Annual Fundraising Dinner on March 11, 2023. Our first planning committee meeting will be held via Zoom. Click here for details and to sign up.
  3. Hear Tachita and Rafael Present at the October Cafecito. On October 6, Rafael and Tachita will share about our efforts in holistic accompaniment of migrants and supporting their integration in Nogales, Sonora. Click here to register for this event.
  4. Fr. Pete Neeley, SJ Celebrates his Jubilee! On September 7, Fr. Pete celebrated 50 years with the Society of Jesus. We see his faithfulness to God and this mission every day in his work as the Assistant Director of Education.
  5. Applications for fall, winter and spring volunteer positions are still open. Kino Border Initiative thrives because of the dedication and solidarity of volunteers from both sides of the border. For more information click here.
  6. KBI Hosts One More Cafecito with Joanna Williams to Share New Strategic Plan. Our Executive Director will be hosting virtual Cafecitos to share about our new Strategic Plan. Bring your questions, curiosity, and your passion! We are ready to move into this next season as an organization and want you at our side. The last cafecito will be on September 20 from 12-1:00pm. All times are presented in MST.
  7. Education Team Launches “Community Conversations.” Are you ready to #WelcomeLikeJesus? The Kino Border Initiative is so grateful to partner with you to create spaces in communities across the US where we can gather to share honestly about our own experiences of welcome and exclusion, learn about what motivates people to migrate to the US-Mexico border today, reflect on what it means to #WelcomeLikeJesus, and imagine how we can do this together. During this training, we will equip you with the tools to lead others into this space and facilitate a welcoming environment that can foster transformation toward solidarity with migrants. Learn more here and register by clicking here.
  8. Accepting Applications for Catholic Sisters to Volunteer. Faith is integral to everything we do, and our religious staff and volunteers have been vital to our organization. We are inviting any member of a Catholic women’s religious order with intermediate/advanced Spanish skills to apply for a 1 month volunteer and advocacy experience with us. All travel and lodging will be paid. You can view details and apply by clicking here. Information available in Spanish here.
  9. Nicole (former volunteer) Raised Funds for KBI in Triathlon. When Jaret was unexpectedly unable to participate, Nicole picked up the baton and raced in the @Trizona Triathlon solo in solidarity with Migrants on August 28th. Many thanks to all who aided her in reaching the $4,000 goal! You can still donate by clicking here.
  10. Migrants hold protest on Sept. 26 World day of Migrants and Refugees.
    The Revolucionarios invite you to commemorate the internationally recognized World Day of Migrants and Refugees with a march entitled, “We March for Migrant Dignity” on September 26 to decry Title 42. The march will begin with an intro at 11AM at the Kino Border Initiative Migrant Outreach Center in Nogales, Sonora and march down Reforma to the Plaza de las Golondrinas, where we will hear testimonies and share a call to action. There will be chants and songs, and several stops along the way. Find details by clicking here.
