Solidarity Not Charity
Alpha Hub is self-funded and grassroots, and will stay that way despite the challenges we face working in opposition to current colonial systems and rising grocery prices due to corporate greed. If you’d like to support our work and ensure we can provide fresh foods to our patrons consistently throughout the year, consider making mutual aid a consistent practice.
Mutual aid is not an act of charity, it is an act of community. It is by the people, for the people, and it centres the voices and autonomy of the most vulnerable among us. Mutual aid is recognizing that marginalized communities are actively ignored by the government and stepping up to do something about it with the means you have access to - whether that is through funds, goods, services, or time.
We encourage folks to become a friend of change by making a monthly mutual aid contribution as a way to redistribute wealth. Regular funds helps us know exactly what we can provide each month to our patrons. The sliding scale below, created by AWARE-LA, can be used as a guide to help you choose a place on the scale for a recurring contribution that is both generous and financially sustainable.
100% of mutual aid funds go directly to community.
