In a time where big brands, employers, and companies are putting increasing emphasis on the importance of community, where do we prioritize people over profit? We got our start with a simple call to action: “Meet us here for friends!” and over the last two years we’ve developed meaningful partnerships and systems to mobilize access to community and resources. Community HAS to be accessible to make an impact. That belief is weaved into the fiber of what we do. That’s why we don’t and never will charge a monthly subscription to join us in any of our events or programming. As late stage capitalism continues to threaten our ability to obtain the bare necessities, why should We pay for friends? And where does “community” give way to modern consumerism? 💡💖 #freetobecollective #explore #atlanta #blacknonprofits #blackcommunity #thingstodoinatlanta #blackcreatives #atl #foodforthought #grassroots #buildingcommunity #blackmentalhealthmatters
