OUR WISH LIST

Help us to continue our work and meet the needs of the communities we serve.

Phase 1 -
Immediate Needs

Permanent Office Space

To amplify our current programs and meet the urgent community needs we are currently looking for a safe and permanent home for community gatherings and programming.

We dream this space will become a multi-purpose studio to gather, create art, be a safe space for youth and elders. This would also uplift our mutual aid efforts to house and process donations for the communities and programs we continue to serve since COVID pandemic.

Vehicle

The communities we serve are significant distances from our home office. We were using staff owned vehicles until it was obvious that the wear and tear on personal vehicles was not sustainable. We now rent vehicles- which is costly and time consuming.

This multi-use vehicle will be used for both transportation and as a mobile office and studio to showcase local art.

The van will meet the needs of our community outreach efforts and mutual aid requests. We need dependable transportation for events such as:

health fairs,

film expos/festivals,

career fairs,

trainings, and

community led demonstrations.

Phase 2 -
After vehicle and office space is secured

Multimedia In house iMac Desktops and ipads, hard-drives.

To further our inhouse editing, increase our media capacity and multimedia demonstrations we are requesting to have inhouse editing access for the community to create their own stories.

Phone

We can uplift our in-take incoming requests for all programming and send out mass texts for programming events.
