GS Mutual Aid
 
About Us
GS Mutual Aid is a grassroots mutual aid network supporting the most vulnerable and at-risk members of our community during the COVID-19 crisis– immigrant and undocumented families. This sensitive work is being done by the community itself, neighbors supporting neighbors who have been left out of an oppressive system. We operate out of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. GS Mutual Aid's efforts are fully funded by donations, and feed around 2000 at-risk people per week. These donations allow for grocery distribution two to three times a week from Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. We also deliver over 400 donated hot meals a week to homebound families. All of our volunteers are ordinary folks volunteering their time and effort. We are not a government agency or a non-profit. We are always looking for support through donations, volunteer help, and more. To get involved, please email gsmutualaid@gmail.com.
We Participate Because
Similar to other ioby projects specifically around mutual aid, one hundred percent of donations to GS Mutual Aid are used to purchase groceries and basic supplies for vulnerable neighbors. Households then receive what they need from our network of delivery volunteers – ordinary residents who are helping members of our community. We are grateful for every contribution. Every dollar you give has a direct impact on the safety and well-being of our neighbors.
