Our next sweep is planned for April, but if we get to $5k in donations before that, we can have one in March. Donate at opencollective.com/mamas/pro… - or better yet, make a recurring donation so we can plan our sweeps well in advance

Reminder that mutual aid is not a photo op! If you see politicians posting pics at a community fridge this weekend, ask where they've been the rest of the year. Ask what laws they've passed to increase SNAP and food assistance.

Mutual aid envisions a world where everyone's needs are met: water, food, shelter, medical care, and safety. Today, Palestinians have none of these. Join the Boston Coalition for Palestine Sunday at 2pm in Copley.

The US Government spent $3.8 billion on military aid to Israel in 2022. Instead of bombs and soldiers, that money should be spent on humanitarian aid: food and housing security for Palestinians and our neighbors alike.
