Donate Money

We are currently accepting financial donations through the Astoria Mutual Aid Network's fundraising site: https://ioby.org/project/astoria-mutual-aid-network-fund 

Thanks to the support of our last fundraiser, our food costs have been covered through the end of 2021! Further donations to AMAN will go to support our rent for the space at 25-82 Steinway St, food costs into 2022, as well as any additional needs of our community, such as emergency responses to natural disasters and our yearly school supply and toy drives. 

If you'd like to pay by check or have any other questions about how to donate, please email us to discuss details.
