6 Mutual-Aids to Donate to in DFW
I had never heard of the term “mutual aid,” until the crazy winter storms we got hit with here in Texas last month. Scrambling to figure out how I could help the houseless and those without power while I was stuck and waiting for our few minutes with power - I quickly realized that the people running mutual aid non-profits are the ones with their feet on the ground, helping people who need help the most. I have so much respect for these people.
Especially when one of our senators decided to take a quick vacay…I won’t name names but you know who you are Teddy Cancruz…
A mutual-aid system is not a charity. To me, it is simply people helping their neighbors. You know, that part of the bible we like to skim over sometimes, “thou shalt love thy neighbor”….
I wanted to share a list of hard-working mutual-aids I’ve discovered. I know the effects of the covid-19 pandemic have so many people in need of a bit of help. Please comment below if you know of some that I haven’t listed here!
