In the wake of the mass shooting in Buffalo, NY, a horrific act of racism and violence, on-the-ground organizations and leaders are stepping up to help their community. Here are a few that could use your support:
.@feedbuffalo, a Black-led organization with deep roots in the East Buffalo community, understands that ongoing healthy food access is critical. With food accessibility diminishing after the recent tragedy, they are fighting to ensure residents stay fed. feedbuffalo.org
.@feedmorewny is helping distribute food for people who depended on Tops Markets, the only grocery store in the area, which is now closed. You can donate through their website or volunteer to help at one of their emergency food distribution events: feedmorewny.org
