Who We Are:

Democratic Socialists of America is the largest socialist organization in the United States and we are in the midst of explosive growth nationally and locally. We are not a political party; we are an activist organization. Our vision is of a democratically run economy and society that gives power to the people rather than the privileged elites.

Join us at City Hall to receive or donate food, and to demand our leaders save our $600! The $600 per week in federal unemployment benefits has expired. President Trump’s proposed executive order on federal unemployment is a failure. We deserve the full $600, fully funded, and administratively simple.

If you have food donations (shelf-stable foods, canned foods, pasta, rice, etc.) or hygiene products you can donate please take them to Native Hostel and The Far Out Lounge until the end of the week (8/30).

Want to contribute but don’t have canned goods? Hit our linktree for the Cashapp grocery donation button!

We are unemployed through no fault of our own, and we deserve enough support to survive. Many of us are restaurant, bar, and venue workers, and our workplaces are struggling to stay in business. We need our unemployment! We feed you, don’t let us starve!
