🔗 Support Project South's Summer Solidarity Campaign: bit.ly/FundPS26 ✊🏾 Help Us Build the Mutual Aid Liberation Center @ 9 Gammon!
The Mutual Aid Liberation Center (MALC) @ 9 Gammon, a collaborative project of Project South and the Hunger Coalition of Atlanta, is housed in a 70-year-old building that was once a community center and school. Every day, we care for this historic space while imagining what it can become for generations to come. Located in South Atlanta, MALC sits within 10-historically Black neighborhoods in what was once Brownsville, one of the first communities established by formerly-enslaved Black people after emancipation. As a Black-led organization in a rapidly gentrifying area, we are committed to honoring Brownsville’s legacy by organizing alongside residents, preserving local history, and helping build its future. We know this place matters. Even during the hottest summer months, when the air conditioning fails, the internet goes down, or the power cuts out, we continue to open our doors and do the work. More importantly, our community continues to show up with us, reminding us that this space belongs to the people who need it most. Today, MALC is a home for movement organizing, political education, mutual aid, food distribution, leadership development, and community gatherings. But the building’s aging infrastructure is limiting what it can support. Your monthly contribution helps us maintain this historic space today while ensuring it can continue serving our communities for the next 100 years. It also brings us closer to the future envisioned in this rendering by @ateliercoryhenry: a fully-renovated campus designed to meet our community’s growing social, climate, and economic needs. Imagine community gardens, playgrounds, affordable housing, meeting spaces, and green gathering spaces! You can help us keep MALC running today in the short-term, and help us build the future our communities deserve for the long-term! 🔗 Donate today: bit.ly/FundPS26 — 📸 Image Credit: Design and concept by ATELIER CORY HENRYSee it on Instagram ↗
