Community Action And Drop Off Location

Times are hard for so many — including 40+ million people affected by SNAP cuts. You may not realize who’s impacted:

  • The elderly
  • The disabled
  • Single mothers
  • Children
  • Survivors of domestic violence
  • Veterans
  • Folks battling long term or terminal illness

For survivors of abuse, these cuts can determine whether or not they’re able to leave an unsafe situation — literally a matter of life and death.  In Massachusetts, domestic violence–related homicides are up 40%, while resources have been cut by 10%.

Let’s show up for each other.

Here are some ways you can help:

• Donate
• Give cash to food banks, shelters, community groups, and social justice organizations. Here are some on the south shore and Boston areas.

• Offer a ride to someone in need
• Help with yard work — mow a lawn, rake leaves
• Offer childcare to a struggling parent
• STOP overspending on Amazon, Temu, Apple or Walmart to name a few.
• SUPPORT your local small businesses and artisans

LOOK OUT for your neighbors — especially the elderly. Offer kindness, food, and assistance.
