We know today is heavy for our community. We are h We know today is heavy for our community. We are here. For each other. We are stronger, together. Whether you need to relax with hebal tea or find security in being a prepared bee, our movements have been creating the content for caring for each other for years. Because this is just one of the many disasters we have and will face together. Because we forge safety through solidarity. Because we save each other. Because we will survive this storm, like we have the others. Because rebellions are built on hope. Because all we have is each other. Check out our website for co-conspirators engaged in mutual aid work and for survival resources - from herbalistas to diy-ing for the climate chaos. #solidarity #mutualaid #wesaveeachother #rebellionsarebuiltonhope https://bit.ly/madr-resources https://bit.ly/MADRprograms

The mutual aid disaster relief hub at Smith Mill W The mutual aid disaster relief hub at Smith Mill Works in Asheville is changing the days we're open. We'll now be closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. This means we won't be accepting deliveries or making deliveries those two days. The WNC Mutual Aid Switchboard will still be operating during those days, but the warehouse will be taking a break and getting ready for the next week of getting supplies out to folks!

Calling all like-minded medical professionals for Calling all like-minded medical professionals for mutual aid clinics popping up around western North Carolina! In response to the devastation of Hurricane Helene, medical doctors, nurses, EMTs, street medics, elder care workers and many other medical professionals have collaborated on the ground to make and staff pop-up clinics and make door-to-door wellness checks in some if the most isolated and cut off communities. They have helped find and fill needed medications and mobility aids and provided transportation when needed. As long-term response efforts take over, more needs are being identified in more areas, more medic support is also needed. This work is a labor of love and solidarity. This is work that highlights the massive failure of the state to bring critical care to its residents, before, during, and after the visible disaster of the most recent climate change caused storm has passed. That time is still now. If you can support work on the ground to staff and support pop-up clinics, even if for just a day, please reach out to our medic allies' hotline to plug in. Send a text to the WNC MEDIC HOTLINE at 828-222-4935 to connect. Not a medic but want to support the good works? To donate supplies or funds for medics, reach out to us at mutualaiddisasterrelief@gmail.com or donate directly to our Action Network at https://bit.ly/donatemadr #solidaritynotcharity #mutualaidmedic #wekeepeachothersafe #popupclinic #harmreductionsaveslives #communitiesofcare @avlsurvival @pansy.collective @wncmutualaidswitchboard
Did you know that the @mutualaiddisasterrelief net Did you know that the @mutualaiddisasterrelief network has co-conspirators across the world? Wherever allies on the ground are organizing, mobilizing, and planting the seeds of mutual aid, we want to support that growth. In the Philippines, Pirate Studio is an autonomous space that promotes radical perspectives and creative resistance against the oppressive, capitalist system responsible for destroying ecosystems, climate chaos, and violating human rights. They also promote and practice mutual aid and have been caring for their community through the Covid health crisis and numerous typhoons that have impacted the country over the years. In just the last few months, Pirate Studio has provided local disaster relief support through fires, landslides, and back to back typhoons. The most recent typhoon to hit the island, Typhoon Trami (Kristine), compounded the existing devastation and flooded camps of already displaced community members. We are helping to funnel supplies and resources to Pirate Studio mutual aid to continue their work in impacted communities. To support efforts in the Philippines, donate to the MADR Action Network using the QR code ir or by going to https://bit.ly/donatemadr Use "TYPHOON" in the comment with your donations to direct aid for this effort.
