Hey yinz! This Patreon fund directly supports all of the Pittsburgh DSA mutual aid work, including:
The Community Garden, Pantry, and Little Library
The Ecosocialist Committee maintains a community garden, pantry, and little library outside of Community Forge in Wilkinsburg.
We distribute any produce we harvest from the garden to our Wilkinsburg neighbors and DSA members. We keep the library full of books. The pantry is used by neighbors to drop off and take what they like, but Community Forge started offering a more robust neighborhood assistance program inside, so we stopped regularly stocking the pantry with food (so that literal raccoons won’t get it!)
Hot Food Distro
On the second and fourth Wednesday of each month, 6-8pm, we host Hot Food Distro. We set up tables and tent right outside Community Forge in Wilkinsburg and invite anyone to swing by to grab a meal, some groceries, or share what they can.
Over the years, our mutual aid work has grown to reach so many of our neighbors, helping alleviate food insecurity and create lasting connections within the community. This Patreon page will keep all of your donations in one place. Therefore making it easier for us to distribute our resources and support food justice throughout Pittsburgh. Thank you for your contributions!
