We are a small group of friends united by a shared commitment to mutual aid. We formed around efforts to support refugees from Gaza who had arrived in the Bay Area after the start of the holocaust on Gaza and to support individuals traveling from Gaza to receive medical treatment.

For us, mutual aid is about building relationships grounded in reciprocity and solidarity. In our lives and work, we recognize that the struggle for Palestinian liberation is inextricably linked to issues of justice everywhere. We understand that true freedom is collective and interconnected. We don’t free Palestine, Palestine frees us!

We believe that building networks of mutual aid is some of the most important work of our time, and will sustain us through moments of rupture and beyond. Building relationships is building resilience.
