Hello there, Comrades! I am living in southern California at the moment, the south end of Los Angeles county to be more exact. I would love to help out and bring the local encampments for Palestine some coffee, food stuffs, water, whatever I can. I'm hoping for suggestions of where to look or how to contact organizers to find out what is most needed/wanted most! Accounts to follow or websites for how to best bring by donations! Thank you so much comrades!

My advice is to skip the organizers and just go talk to the people in the camps. Ask them what they need.

Your thoughts of coffee and food sound like decent ideas.

This seems like more of a “just go” rather than a “sign up to go” situation.
