🚨 starting today (through april 13th) you can support our community closet by dropping off new & unused hygiene/cleaning supplies off at buder library! 💛

For more than a year now, our Community Closet has provided much needed support with hygiene and cleaning supplies to folks in the community who need them. This project has been an amazing example of how we can come together to ensure there is enough for EVERYONE. However, with rising costs and these items in high demand, our inventory has dwindled over time, leaving us without the capacity to continue providing this support.

We are asking for help from the community to help restock the Community Closet by supporting our Donation Drive at Buder Library from March 3rd to April 13th! (Drop offs can be made during library hours.)

We are especially in need of the following items:

* Soap
* Toothpaste
* Toothbrushes
* Deodorant
* Travel mouthwash
* Travel body wash
* Hair care products
* Paper towels
* Toilet paper
* Travel body lotion
* Small containers of laundry detergent
* Air freshening spray
* Sanitary wipes
* Small, new hair brushes
* Dish soap

*Clothing and food items will not be accepted.

Financial solidarity, the practice of direct fundraising for individuals in need in our community, has always been a huge part of STL Mutual Aid. Unfortunately, over the last few years, our monthly donations into the STL Mutual Aid Fund have steadily decreased while the need for urgent funds has remained extremely high, with our waitlist still totaling over 500 people.

Due to this reality, we have decided to pause the mutual aid fund and stop distributing funds directly to individuals. Instead, we encourage people to donate directly to people in need of support through the “give” spreadsheet linked in our bio.

We believe this is more in the spirit of mutual aid, and is also more practical and much quicker for people who are needing urgent assistance.

Anyone who wishes to add themselves to the spreadsheet can do so through the “request” form linked in our bio.

We know that times are hard for everyone, and we will continue to do what we can to love and support each other.

In community,

STL Mutual Aid 🧡
