This summer, FAFO is helping bring a series of community-centered events to life as part of Seven Days in DC:

• Mutual Aid Matters Fair connects people with organizations and resources already doing important work in our communities.

• Pet Parade & Pawlitics in the Park creates a welcoming space for people and their pets to build community, engage in civic life, and remember that joy and connection are part of sustaining movements.

• Beyond the Ballot: Black Voices & Civic Engagement creates space for honest conversations about leadership, representation, grassroots organizing, and the realities Black communities face while working to create change.

Our work doesn't end when the events are over. FAFO also supports ongoing mutual aid efforts, including support at Delaney Hall and responding when our communities need us most.

Whether it's providing supplies, showing up in solidarity, amplifying urgent needs, or helping coordinate support, we believe that caring for one another is just as important as raising our voices.

We are everyday people who care deeply about our communities and are committed to showing up where we're needed. We simply ask for support in helping us sustain this work.

Donations help cover the real costs of organizing and direct action, including materials, water, snacks, safety supplies, signage, event fees, transportation, digital platforms, and the tools that allow us to remain present and responsive throughout the summer.

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps ensure that when our communities call, we're able to answer.

Thank you for helping us continue this work.
