Take a “Midnight Walk” for the Alliance!
We wanted you to know another way that you can support the work our Alliance is doing to make our community healthy, just and self reliant — specifically the work our Just Housing team is doing in regards to Affordable Housing!
Octopus Coffee (located at 759 Horizon Drive, Suite F, in Grand Junction) has created a special blend, “Midnight Walk” (so-named because it is a dark roast, but also because when its people have trouble finding homes, our community could end up “walking in the dark” with no where to go). Ten percent of every purchase of “Midnight Walk” will go to support the Mesa County and the Just Housing team!
We believe that shelter is a human right and should be affordable, sustainable, equitable, and safe! Help support the great Just Housing team by buying “Midnight Walk” coffee from Octopus Coffee! You can buy it at their store location or online. And please say hello to our team members and thank them for everything they have given and done to make sure we put Mesa County on the path towards meeting its housing needs!
María Luiza Peréz Chavéz (who sometimes goes by Mary) works closely with the Western Colorado Alliance of Mesa County affiliate group. María is fluent in both English and Spanish and sometimes works as a skilled interpreter. But her love for language goes beyond just English and Spanish; currently, she is also studying French and Japanese! One day, she hopes to attend law school as an avenue to help those in need. Even with her busy schedule, María’s priority is her family. As the eldest of seven children, she has always felt the need to support her parents in any way she can. And somehow, she still finds time to read, swim, listen to music, watch movies, draw, play video games, and hang out with friends!
