The ACLU is our nation`s guardian of liberty, working daily in courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country. The ACLU is a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization that has grown from a roomful of civil liberties activists in 1920 to an organization of more than 500,000 members and supporters today. We handle nearly 6,000 court cases annually from our offices in almost every state. The ACLU is supported by annual dues and contributions from its members, plus grants from private foundations and individuals. We do not receive any government funding. We protect: Your First Amendment rights - freedom of speech, association and assembly; freedom of the press, and freedom of religion. Your right to equal protection under the law - protection against unlawful discrimination. Your right to due process - fair treatment by the government whenever the loss of your liberty or property is at stake. Your right to privacy - freedom from unwarranted government intrusion into your personal and private affairs. The ACLU also works to extend rights to segments of our population that have traditionally been denied their rights, including people of color; women; lesbians, gay men, bisexuals and transgender people; prisoners; and people with disabilities.

Builders of Hope is an established and innovative leader in affordable housing and urban renewal. Since our founding in 2006, we have successfully created and rebuilt neighborhoods by providing workforce housing through the reuse of existing inventory. Builders of Hope saves homes slated for demolition and recycles them using our patent-pending “Extreme Green Rehabilitation” model for residential construction. This process creates beautiful, healthier homes that are energy efficient and less costly to maintain. Additionally, through the Upcycle program, Builders of Hope transforms foreclosed, vacant properties into energy efficient, affordable rentals for working-class Americans. Each city that Builders of Hope is invited to has unique challenges and features, but the goal remains the same: return these communities to safety, stability and vitality.
