Hello again backers!
First I want to share some exciting news - we now have (just barely) enough pledged support from group and individual donors to make our monthly $1400 rent payments every month, without needing to ask for extra donations each month. Thank you all so much for your continued support!
Operations update:
Meal prep for mutual aid continues to be the most popular use of the space, with multiple different groups using the Center for this each week. We also have a pay-what-you-want pop-up thrift store hosted at the Center last month, which may become a recurring even.
Tacoma Coop Net has begun using the Center for community outreach, and we're looking forward to seeing their project grow on the Hilltop.
Finally, we have extended an invitation to Hilltop Urban Gardens to bring their Agro-Education program to the Center, but haven't worked out the details on that yet. Hoping to share more about that next month!
