Be With Good Company
There is so much good stuff happening in qathet (and beyond). I have been so heartened to see the collaborations and the DIY-DIT (do-it-yourself & do-it-together) spirit that our communities are so so skilled at.

And because of my health, I have not been able to be part of in-person gatherings as much as I would like. I am sure I am not alone in that. But I still wanna be part of things! All the good things! And contribute in a meaningful way, within my capacity, to the good things that are happening.

So, Be With Good Company begins. I hope these offerings provide another way to foster good relationships, learn together, take action, and be in solidarity with each other. I hope it helps me/us feel less isolated and more connected and be part of an irresistible creative vision for now and the future.

Summer 2025 Community Care Project
Thanks to our generous community, we hosted a Comfort Kit Social with our neighbours who are unhoused – read my blog post about it here and updates + financial tracking here.

Monthly meet-up & List
The meet-up is a place of collaboration and mobilization for action – in an fairly accessible and low-barrier way. A space for like-minded folks – feel free to share info + invite trusted friends and comrades. Drop-in, take self-directed action, chit chat, and celebrate our efforts. Folks have been spending the time signing petitions, drafting letters to City Council, sharing about upcoming events, and strategizing about local issues.

“Mutual aid projects let us practice meeting our own and each other’s needs, based in shared commitments to dignity, care, and justice. They let us practice coordinating our actions together with the belief that all of us matter and that we should all get to participate in the solutions to our problems. They let us realize that we know best how to address the crises we face.”
-Dean Spade, Mutual Aid, 2020
