To Support Efforts in the Liberty Community to Reconnect The Communities Through Volunteerism
A chance meeting at a homeless encampment … Coalition Reporter & Libertarian Mutual Aid Founder Pat Ford was at a Press Conference, to discuss the upcoming forced eviction of dozens of unhoused Rhode Islanders. In the blazing midsummer heat, a young man approached Pat for a “cold bottle of water” … By coincidence, Pat’s truck held 2 pallets of bottled water, originally destined for a “drop in center”. Realizing that despite the literal millions spent by Rhode Island Government to “combat” homelessness, including the appointment of a well paid “Housing Czar”, no one had thought to provide folks living out door with the most basic of needs. Clean. Drinking. Water.
That day, 40 Packs was delivered to each tent. And, the water project was formed. Water is now delivered to encampments & drop in centers across Northern Rhode Island. Your generosity will help with delivery costs, and additional foodstuffs as funds are available
The floods were caused by low pressure and a cold front that occurred from July 9–29, 2023, resulting in roughly two months' worth of rain in less than 48 hours. Water levels in some rivers reached about 20 feet above normal, making it the state's worst flooding event since 1927. The floods affected communities in the southern Green Mountains, including Ludlow, Plymouth, and Weston, as well as the City of Barre in central Vermont.
Entire neighborhoods across Vermont were wiped out, as well as necessary services: Medical Clinics, Supermarkets, City Halls.
Working with the Libertarian Party of Vermont, what is now know as Libertarian Mutual Aid placed a “Call to Action” across the Libertarian World
A Walmart Wish List, a funding website,and direct donations financed 5 Deliveries of Mops, Fans, Cleaning Supplies, Water, Borax, & various cleaning Supplies to the Johnson, Vermont Community.

Sadly, a common situation … facing, or living in the rough, the need for a simple meal … Without having to subject themselves for yet another humiliation. At a Subway Sandwich Shop in Maine, word has quietly spread in the community that meal vouchers are available, at no charge, simply for asking …
Funded by the Libertarian Party of Maine, the pilot project is projected to expand this year to 3 additional Subway Shops.
