The Solidarity scoop 📰
May brought many extra reasons to celebrate women and girls – from Mother’s Day in Reynosa to World Menstrual Hygiene Day in Tapachula
 
Operating at both the northern and southern borders of Mexico comes with unique challenges. Here's how your support helped us show up this month.

  • In Reynosa, Jose continued to ensure access to clean water through regular WASH system maintenance – this includes water delivery, tank cleaning, and water quality testing.
  • In Tapachula, Dison prioritized urgent water system repairs, including new pumps and foundations, while distributing hygiene supplies like diapers.

 
How Does Solidarity Build a Period-Friendly World?
  • In Tapachula, Antonia led distributions of essential menstrual supplies to women in shelters. After many conversations to understand their most urgent needs, we provided umbrellas, hygiene supplies, and underwear, and more.
  • In Reynosa, Pepe prepared 45 hygiene kits for a maternal and newborn hospital, ensuring new mothers and their babies are met with care and basic dignity.

 
 

 
📢 Advocacy Updates - Some Good news!
We’re excited to share some hopeful news and advocacy momentum since we last talked:
  • 🫂 Maikelys has been reunited with her family – a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we advocate together.
  • ⚖️ After much debate, Texas legislation SJR1 was defeated – a major win for due process and immigrant rights in Texas. Solidarity Engineering joined partners across the country in opposing this harmful amendment, which would have denied bail based on broad definitions of immigration status.
  • This Immigration Policy Tracker has logged 317 policy actions taken since the current U.S. administration took office, providing vital insights into how policy is shaping the lives of migrants and asylum-seekers.
We'll be back next month with more updates and new advocacy opportunities!

Together, we’re not just responding to crises – we’re building lasting change.
 
With gratitude,
The Solidarity Engineering Team
THANK YOU FOR STANDING WITH US.
