This is the fundrazr for the People's Defense League People's
Grocery Program for May, 2020. We met our funding goals last month,
which allowed us to quickly and effectively Serve the People in the
face of food shortages caused by Covid 19 layoffs. However, it is
paramount that our program continues and expands. If you want to
donate in person, DM us. If you can donate cash, this is the place
for you. If all you can do is signal boost, we appreciate the help.
Some of our recipients have told us that our program is what
stands between them and starvation, as the government response as
the government's solution-a one time $1200 dollar pay out which some
of us haven't even received- is more like a slap in the face than a
solution, when greedy landlords, and exorbitant bills soak up the
crumbs of so called "stimulus." Meanwhile multinational
corporations swindle and steal relief money like they are playing dice.
We, as working class people, are going to have to pull through
this by solidarity and not scraps from the table of the ruling
class. Our PGP uses the donations received to build dozens of supply
bags for folks who are either immunocompromised, elderly, or simply
can't make ends meet. Our cadre deliver it to folks doors after
sterilizing donations, and wearing Personal Protective Equipment.
Please donate to our People's Grocery program for this month,
and help us achieve our funding goals, so we can continue to serve
New Orleans workers, in one of the epicenters of the Covid pandemic.
All Power to the People!
