The Coalition for a Multilingual Rhode Island (CMRI) is launching a shirt fundraiser to celebrate multilingual communities and raise support for our work expanding language education opportunities across the state.

Our shirt features the question ?Are you multilingual too?? alongside our signature tree logo ? a symbol of growth, connection, and the many languages that make Rhode Island vibrant.

Proceeds from this fundraiser help support community events, advocacy efforts, and initiatives that promote multilingual education and a stronger pipeline of bilingual educators.

The Coalition for a Multilingual Rhode Island operates under the fiscal sponsorship of the Olneyville Neighborhood Association (ONA), a nonprofit organization based in Providence at the historic Atlantic Mills that supports community-led initiatives in Olneyville and beyond.

There are two ways to support the campaign:
