Donations made to the fund named Citizens Against Project Sunset support mailers, brochures, ads, and legal costs for our opposition effort.
Donations to the group behind No Tyson in Tongie help fund the outreach materials needed to inform Leavenworth County residents about the proposed Tyson animal processing complex near Tonganoxie. Mailers, brochures, and print advertisements all cost money, and the volume of community response has been large. Supporting these efforts directly strengthens the public voice opposing the project and helps ensure that residents across the county understand the concerns at stake before decisions are made.
Contributions also build a legal fund, which is essential when residents and citizens are asked to challenge a development of this scale. Opposition to the proposed Tyson plant can involve hearings, filings, and appearances that require professional support. Every gift, whether large or small, helps keep Leavenworth County green and gives working people, families, and landowners a stronger position when they oppose the plans through official channels.
Donations can be made in person at the Mutual Savings Association, with checks made payable to the fund named Citizens Against Project Sunset, and contributions can also be submitted online through PayPal for those who prefer to give remotely. Volunteers are welcome as well, since many hands are needed for events, updates, canvassing, and spreading accurate information about the poultry processing plans and their effects on the surrounding area.
The questions surrounding this project extend beyond the site itself to water, air, pollution, traffic, and the quality of life in nearby communities such as Tongie and Tonganoxie, as well as the broader county around it. Residents have raised concerns about slaughterhouse and hatchery operations, feed, waste handling, and the strain placed on local resources and the environment. Supporting the fight helps residents keep informed, share their opinions, and stay engaged in the process.
