Join us for an inspiring evening of music and celebration of the power of Love Over Fear. The Love Over Fear benefit concert supports decarceration and immigrant rights!

This event features a lineup of talented Bay Area immigrant and BIPOC musicians inspiring us to build solidarity in the face of racism, replacing fear, criminalization, and xenophobia with healing, inclusion, and shared humanity. This Love Over Fear concert is a benefit for Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity (IM4HI), a multi-faith, multi-racial, and multi-generational organization that advocates for the dignity of immigrants, full inclusion of people formerly incarcerated, and community well-being over prisons, detention, and criminalization. IM4HI believes that all people are sacred across bars and borders.

Don’t miss this inspiring evening of solidarity and beloved community! Join with us as we choose love over fear!

IM4HI’s Love Over Fear cultural work continues into 2024! Read more here.

IM4HI’s Journey in Faith: A Decade of Growth, A Decade of Impact

Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity is a faith-rooted organization for social justice.

Over the past ten years, we have been supported in our work by the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund’s Flexible Leadership Award program (now The LeadersTrust), offering us tools of capacity building to deepen our impact, increase our long-term sustainability, and develop our leadership. In 2023, we engaged independent consultants Shiree Teng and Nadine Wilmot to listen and gather our stories, to help us reflect on our growth, and celebrate our journey with the Flexible Leadership Award program. Their work was informed by conversations with IM4HI staff, board members, capacity building consultants, and FLA staff. President and CEO of the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund, Cathy Cha, also contributed her perspectives.

From these conversations, woven together, emerged an oral history of IM4HI’s capacity building journey, which they presented in the following four documents. We hope you will join with us as we continue our journey towards justice and Beloved Community for all.
