About
The Edgewater Mutual Aid Network (EMAN) is a grassroots effort to share resources and build a network of support in our community. As an autonomous mutual aid network, we operate through an anti-capitalist lens driven by solidarity, not charity. Every dollar donated to Edgewater Mutual Aid Network goes back into our community through resources like our weekly grocery distro, our garden plot, and bill assistance. We are a grassroots, non-hierarchical, volunteer-only group funded entirely by our community. Make a donation today to support Edgewater neighbors through solidarity, not charity!
As a small group with limited finances, we try to meet with neighbors and determine their needs as well as our own capacity, from boosting fundraisers to providing direct assistance. EMAN provides aid specifically to neighbors within Edgewater, and aims to build relationships instead of viewing aid as simply transactional.
