When Black Mamas are good, everything is better.

This year, Black Mamas Village has distributed more than $213,000 in emergency assistance to help mothers stay housed, keep the lights on, and feed their families. Every month, our Food Pantry feeds over 600 people, and our Free Store provides clothing, diapers, and essentials with dignity and love.

But today, our Village is carrying more than ever. The government shutdown has paused SNAP benefits for many families, inflation has pushed rents and groceries even higher, and more mamas are calling for help every week. Our Emergency Fund is nearly empty, just as the need is at its highest.

We Give Because We Are the Village. Together, we can refill the fund that keeps families housed and the doors of The Village Place open.

💛 Fuel the Emergency Fund → Provides immediate rent, utility, and food assistance to families in crisis.

🖤 Strengthen the Village (Annual Fund) → Keeps The Village Place running, our pantry stocked, and programs thriving year-round. (20% of all unrestricted gifts also go toward the Emergency Fund.)

Every gift, no matter the size, is a gesture of love and solidarity. Because when Black mamas are good, everything is better.
