ABQ Mutual Aid

Founded in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, ABQ Mutual Aid is a volunteer-driven organization committed to fostering community resilience in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In partnership with our fiscal sponsor, the Southwest Organizing Project (SWOP), we strive to address immediate needs and systemic challenges by distributing food and essential resources, hosting community events, and creating arts spaces. We emphasize in all we do it is solidarity not charity. 
Contributions by community supported in providing food resources, housing support, and essential aid to countless neighbors. As a community we have collectively supported over 82,000 community members in Albuquerque and surrounding communities. Over the years, we have witnessed the power of mutual aid in action; people showing up for each other, redistributing resources, and upholding our commitment to collective care and justice, where everyone’s well-being matters. This collective work is only possible because of the generosity and care of community members.  http://www.ffol.org/
