Hi folks! Spring is around the corner and our neighbors' needs are changing. Folks are asking for light jackets, body wipes, batteries (all kinds), and men's pants. You can donate items at our donation box in Nabala Cafe (right by the door). You can also send monetary donations to @Cap-Izzo on Venmo

This is violence ‼️‼️

You can support Albany Park Mutual Aid as they coordinate support to their neighbors affected by this sweep on one of the coldest days the year:

Hello! We've gained new followers recently and wanted to introduce ourselves. If our work and values align with you and you'd like to get involved, send us a DM! We'd love to talk more.
Slide text reads in all caps "Who are we?" Under it says in smaller letters "We are a group of neighbors living in Uptown who are committed to the wellbeing of our community. We are abolitionists rotted in mutual aid and collective care. We spend time together building the world we want to see starting with our neighborhood."
