Mutual Aid Day: Sunday, June 6th, 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
This year the Ella Baker Center is partnering with various organizations and hosting a series of in-person mutual aid events across Alameda County. As we know, the pandemic has only further exacerbated racial & socio-economic inequalities in our communities. So many of our neighbors are not safe as they face food insecurity and struggle to keep a roof over their head. Despite this clear public health crisis, Alameda County and certain city governments continue to push a false narrative of public safety. Spending our valuable tax dollars on more police and more jails cells will not keep us safe. We know that we are safe when our needs are met. #WeKeepUsSafe. Here is how you can support our June mutual aid event:
Donation Drive: Tuesday, June 1st, 4p-7:30 pm @ 550 El Embarcadero, Oakland, 94610 (Lake Merritt): We will be collecting diapers, baby wipes, baby formula, pet food, cooking oil. All donations will be handed out to our community members during mutual aid events
Mutual Aid Day: Sunday, June 6th, 11a-2p @ Weekes Park, 27182 Patrick Ave, Hayward, 94544: We will be providing free hot to-go plates, PPE, baby supplies, back to school supplies, toiletries, and more. Spread the word & join us!
