The Reclaiming Our Homes Grassroots Movement (ROHGM) Fundraising Appeal for Benito the Reclaimer


Beloved community,

We come to you in a moment of immense grief, love, and responsibility.


As we mourn the loss of our brother and comrade Benito the Reclaimer, we are also carrying the sacred duty of ensuring he receives the dignified burial he deserves. Benito’s life and death reflect the deep injustices our unhoused, disabled, and elder community members face every day. His courage, resistance, and humanity demand that we honor him with care, respect, and collective love.


We are relieved to share that the court has granted The Reclaiming Our Homes Grassroots Movement (ROHGM), the Rights of Homeless Grieving Mothers, the authority to administer Benito’s remains. This victory means we can finally give him the honorable service that reflects his legacy and the community he fought for.

To do this, we need your support.


Our Goal: $30,000

These funds will go directly toward:

  • Funeral and burial services
  • Transportation and administrative costs
  • Community-centered memorial practices
  • Ensuring his final arrangements honor our democratic, collective decision-making process



We are also exploring alternative arrangements to ensure Benito’s service reflects the values he lived and the movement he uplifted.


Why Your Support Matters

Benito’s death was not an isolated tragedy—it was the result of a violent system that criminalizes our unhoused, poor, disabled, and aging community members. Honoring him is an act of resistance. It is a refusal to let the state disappear our people without dignity, ceremony, or memory.


Your contribution helps us:

  • Provide closure to those grieving
  • Uphold the humanity of an elder who deserved so much more
  • Continue building a world where no one is disposable
  • Every donation—large or small—helps us move closer to justice for Benito.


If you cannot contribute financially, please support by:

  • Sharing this appeal
  • Bringing awareness to Benito’s story
  • Joining the ongoing fight for housing, dignity, and liberation
  • Benito lives in every act of community care.
Benito lives in every struggle for justice.
Benito lives in us. The fight continues.


Thank you for standing with us in this moment of grief, love, and collective power.


Honoring Benito means acknowledging that dignity exists in both personal and collective forms. It is expressed not only in the value we place on an individual life, but also in the conditions we create for a community to live with respect, security, and hope. His burial services are a testament to this principle: they affirm his inherent worth and the right of every person to be laid to rest with care, compassion, and recognition. At the same time, the social housing project—grounded in the safety net of self-determination—extends that dignity outward, ensuring that the living have the means to shape their own futures. Together, these acts reflect a deeper commitment: that dignity is not simply an ideal, but a practice carried out in how we honor those who have passed and how we stand beside those who remain.
