Together We Rise: We provide free quality meals, hygiene kits, and essentials to our neighbors facing housing insecurity—always served with dignity, respect, and compassion.

When you graduate out of scarcity mindset, you start to see the world for what it really is. Everything we need to survive is right here on earth, we just face unnecessary obstacles. We live in a world full of abundance.

Our group collects the inevitable, perfectly good overflow of resources (food, water, clothing, hygienic items, and MORE) and gladly gives it all away to those who need it. It only takes a little effort to help our unhoused neighbors. Maybe syd Mrs. B's Table Carly

The reality, there’s enough resources for everyone, we just severely mismanage them as a society. We can’t stand to see that happen, so we go out and give the people what they need directly.

Just another day giving away free food and essentials to our neighbors on the streets! This woman hurt her ankle and thanks to one of our donors, we were able to give her an orthopedic boot! Thank you, Sharon Victoria ! She received that, along with a hot meal, hygienic items, sneakers, and dessert. Thank you for the sneakers Michelle Vinson !

Another Saturday spent serving food, water, and essentials to our unhoused neighbors ❤️‍🔥 Along our route, we stopped at a park and served some folks living there.

On the menu this time was pasta with a mushroom red sauce, breadsticks, cake, and fresh fruit. Thank you Bri Bakes | Sourdough Maybe syd and Kristin for the assist!

1) I’m working! The mutual aid work continues every single day and managing social media on top of grassroots community action is hard!

I’m still organizing: free breakfasts, mobile cooks and serves, frozen meal cooks and delivery, online food assistance requests, donation pickup and organization, hygiene supply drives, onboarding new volunteers, garden troubleshooting, and so much more!

2) I got a new job as a pole instructor! A dream come true, but physically demanding 🤸🏾‍♀️🚏
Balancing new responsibilities with old ones! ⚖️

3) I’m taking care of my senior dog who’s navigating kidney failure. She’s been my ride or die for 13 years. I just want to make her comfortable as she nears the end of her journey 🫂🐶❤️‍🩹😢

4) Social media is too loud 🙄 Sometimes I feel like there’s too much talking and not enough *doing and sharing what works*!

I’m not a “yapper.” It’s imperative that I protect and conserve my energy so I can DO direct action with longevity while juggling life and avoiding burnout.

5) I’m living in the moment! Enjoying the work itself and letting the universe guide me, like always ✨🌌

I find gratitude in knowing my community sees us whether I post on social media or not!

6) In the coming weeks, I will post the many amazing things that have happened over the summer and catch up to what we’re doing now ❤️‍🔥

Hopefully soon, I will find someone who can do low level editing tasks like cutting clips and blurring faces.

Thank you for your ongoing support! 🙇🏾‍♀️🥰🫶🏾

In July, we started our very first hygiene supply drives with two local businesses! Thank you Vixen Pole Fitness and Ab Auto Repair & Tire Shop Inc. ! With these supplies, combined with what we had in stock from our donor friends and Mrs. B's Table , we are on track to assembling 200 kits to give to our unhoused neighbors! The largest assembly we’ve ever done at one time. THANK YOU!

Hygienic items have been the HARDEST for us to keep in stock because they go very quickly on the streets and tend to be more expensive than food.

We hope to connect with more businesses that can consistently supply us with things like toothpaste, toothbrushes, socks, deodorant, mouthwash, shampoo, lotion, hand sanitizer, and more 🪥🧼🧴🧦

Community care must be practical and direct. Delivering frozen meals to folks who have unstable housing but have access to fridges and microwaves (like living in a motel) just makes sense. Money saved on food means that money can be spent on other necessities such as rent, transportation, school supplies, and more.

If you are in need of food support in the following cities, please reach out to us:

Temecula
Murrieta
Lake Elsinore
Perris
Menifee
Sun City
Moreno Valley
French Valley
Wi******er
Hemet
San Jacinto
Riverside

Thanks for the assist 🤝🏾

Idc if Juneteenth is “over” and it’s no longer trending. It’s Juneteenth every day for me 🤸🏾‍♀️😂 This is heritage and purpose! Yall gon get this themed meal 😂

We serve our unhoused neighbors because just like bodily autonomy is a natural born right, so is food and shelter 🫡🙂‍↕️ I know we make our ancestors PROUD. We make our own way, support each other, care for our community, and leave no one behind; just like they would.

I’m over the moon that we were able to grow our own collard greens in our garden and share them with our neighbors! It feels so special. Thank you for the garden assist AND the serving assist 🤩if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t even have collard greens growing. Next time we’ll grow our own blackeyed peas and watermelon too! And thank you Noelle and .hair for jumping right in so smoothly 👏🏾 thank you for the hygiene kits!

During our free breakfast, we took a moment to identify some plants near an encampment! There’s food and medicine growing all around us and we walk past it every day without even realizing it. Some of our unhoused in friends have expressed interest in learning how to forage so we’re giving it a go 🙂 We had so much fun walking around our community and identifying plants 🔎🤳🏾

This work is not done alone in a vacuum! So thankful for everyone who has decided to bring their unique skills and knowledge to our collective mission. Thank you .kill.joy this is so cool 🥹😭🙌🏾

These skills will help us all become more empowered, self-reliant, and connected to the land. Knowledge like this shouldn’t be a secret, it should be shared. Can’t wait to explore this some more 🌻🌿🧠

Bonus points if you can identify some of the plants in this video and how they can be useful 😉

You can only choose one! And there isn’t a right answer.

Would guaranteeing one of these naturally improve the others? Or is there another basic need you think belongs on this list?

In my community, we hardly have any public water fountains on the street at all! Do you? Fountains in the US are free when you can find them, but the quality (function and taste) heavily depends on your location. And they definitely aren’t inviting and free-flowing like in Rome! It defines abundance 🤩 I think Rome’s cultural history of communal public squares has a lot to do with this too.

For the unhoused / homeless communities we serve, a system like this could be extremely transformative.

Travel reminds us that the way things are is not the way they *have* to be forever. Seeing how other communities provide for their people can expand our imagination to what’s possible for ours.

Is water a human right where you live? Are public drinking fountains easy to find, accessible, and working? If so, how do they taste? Let me know in the comments!
