ABOUT BPOC MUTUAL FUND:
This mutual aid travel fund is available to all Black, Brown and Racialised people living in Scotland (you do not have to be an art worker to claim.) We hope this fund can support people now and into the future.
When the fund is open you can claim up to £50 per month, in any form of amount/s that works best for you, no questions asked.
This is a solidarity fund aimed at redistributing finances across our communities.

Note: We are aiming to structure this fund to be sustainable and reliable in the long term. While we aim to support everyone who submits a claim, we can only provide access to the funds we have in the Open Collective account. We will be continuing to seek regular contributions to this fund from allies, with the goal that the fund becomes sustainable in this format. If we are running close to the end of our finances we will firstly seek more contributions and we will also share updates on social media. Check AW4PS social media where we aim to share other resources folk can access for support.
If you have any questions or would like support with this online platform please email AW4PS at: [email protected]
