What is Black Mutual Aid?

Black Mutual Aid is a community-driven initiative focused on supporting and uplifting Black individuals and communities through collective action and solidarity. Its purpose is to provide essential resources, assistance, and empowerment to those in need within the Black community. By showing up and participating, you're contributing to a movement that fosters unity, resilience, and equity for Black individuals and families. Your involvement makes a meaningful difference and helps build a more inclusive and supportive community for everyone. Mutual aid is more than just charity; it's a powerful expression of solidarity and collective care. Studies show that mutual aid initiatives strengthen communities, foster resilience, and promote equity. With your support, we are building a brighter future rooted in solidarity and compassion.

How will the funds be managed?

These funds will be managed collectively by the Black community, ensuring transparency, accountability, and ethical distribution to those in need. Together, we are creating a more just and equitable society for all. We're also excited to announce that this is just the beginning of our efforts to create positive change in our community
