Join us to assemble winter survival kits for our homeless neighbors. We need your help! We are seeking specific donations for the kits, as well as volunteers to help assemble and distribute them.
In addition to assembling these vital kits, we will discuss our 10-Point Program so we have a better understanding of why this work is political direct-aid rather than charity or mutual aid.
We continue seeing the privatization of housing in our communities, with vacant homes and apartments spreading across the city. Mayor Hogsett defunded the Evictions Diversion Program for those who struggle to pay for housing. Our government prioritizes private property over public well-being, putting everyone at risk. As profit-centered housing continues to rise, our public spaces are also being compromised. We demand an expansion of community-centered spaces and housing for all!
In addition, the approved budget for 2027, will put $400 million in the coffers of the IMPD to round up and brutalize our homeless neighbors.
We appreciate your generous donations, which sustain this important project. This month, we are asking for the following specific items for our winter survival kits. You can donate in two ways:
- Donate to Hope Packages, and if possible, become a monthly Sustainer at whatever price you can consistently afford. The more Sustainers we have, the more reliably we can organize and distribute our packages!
- Amazon Wishlist: Purchase items directly from our Amazon wishlist, which will be shipped to the Indianapolis Liberation Center. RIght now, we need:
When you donate to Hope Packages, you’re not only helping our homeless community members survive but also working toward a larger overarching project of transforming our city. A transformation where instead of giving hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to real estate developers and banks, we use that money to actually solve the structures and systems that cause homelessness. If you have questions or want to get more involved, reach out to us in person at the center or email info@indyhopepackages.org.
As Hope Packages continues to grow towards struggling for the people, we need you–the people–to take apart, sign up to be a volunteer today!
Volunteer for Hope Packages!
