Thank you and welcome!
Published on May 11, 2022 by BC

Huge thanks to everyone for supporting our project. So many of you have really kept this thing going over the past two+ years and we couldn't do it without you. It takes a community effort to meet community needs every single day.

Right now our top priorities are:

1) Keep 1:00pm daily distro at the Market Place parking garage happening 7 days a week. This requires comrades to source food, cook, sort food boxes, transport food, serve food, eat food, clean dishes, buy supplies/gear, and much more. If this sounds exciting to you, please sign up for an orientation.

2) Distribute gear. Thanks to our amazing friends at the Grassroots Fund, we have ample funding for tents, backpacks, sleeping bags & pads to help support growing community need for emergency shelter. Neighbors are increasingly losing their housing and the state run emergency hotel voucher program cannot meet the growing needs. If you have any gear to donate, please send us an email or drop off at 32 Hungerford Terrace in Burlington. And if you know of anyone in need of outdoor camping gear, please send them our way! If we don't happen to have any on hand we can get some quickly right now.

We're excited for the weather to be warming up and plan to be out at a number of community events this summer, so please stay tuned! Hopefully we can see some of you soon.
