Contigo, Local Businesses Host Todos Juntos Fest to Support Immigrants

Contigo Immigrant Justice joined forces with several neighborhood businesses to stage Todos Juntos Fest, a community market designed to connect residents with services for immigrants and to promote a recurring-donation program that funds those services.

The event was hosted by Zendo Coffee, Side Track Brewing Company and Flyby Provisions, which opened their spaces for vendors, information tables and community conversations. Organizers said the setting was intended to be welcoming and approachable so more people would stop by and learn what support is available.

Attendees walked among local booths, spoke with service providers, enjoyed music from a live DJ and explored ways to get involved. Many used the event as an opportunity to sign up for the Todos Juntos monthly contribution plan, a simple way to provide ongoing financial backing for legal and social resources.

Program leaders emphasize that steady monthly contributions allow them to plan and maintain services that help immigrants navigate legal systems and access other critical supports. Ben Rose, Contigo’s community engagement manager, explained that knowing monthly income levels in advance makes it possible to build and sustain programs that would be harder to offer on an unpredictable funding schedule.

Contigo Immigrant Justice—formerly known as the Santa Fe Dreamers Project—has spent more than a decade advocating for and assisting immigrant communities. The organization’s work includes legal aid, resource navigation and community-building efforts aimed at increasing access and stability for newcomers.

Organizers encouraged people who want to help or learn more to follow Contigo’s events and outreach in the area, attend future markets or consider joining the Todos Juntos monthly support program to provide steady assistance to neighbors in need.
