The Winter Drive will run Oct. 30-Jan. 30, and comrades will be collecting blankets, masks, medical supplies, hand warmers and more during November and December to distributed to folks in need around metro Atlanta. Sign up here to be a Winter Drive Captain, and be responsible for a donation drop box location in the Metro Atlanta area! All members in good standing across Metro Atlanta are encouraged to sign up!

The recent events in Gaza are alarming, and risk spiraling into further violence and death. Last night, Israel ordered the evacuation of 1.1 million people from the northern part of Gaza in preparation for a possible ground invasion, per a UN spokesperson. Right now, US Congress is preparing to use our tax dollars to fund a genocide of Palestenian people. Please take action NOW to urge Congress to support a ceasefire and de-escalation in Gaza!
