About grass-roots organization Brigada Solidaria del Oeste -
The Solidarity Brigade of the West is a self-managed community initiative comprised of individuals from various organizations, creative spaces, and social struggles. Our aim is to support the development of collective processes in communities and to promote grassroots community efforts. This initiative arose after the passing of Hurricane María. We visit communities on the west coast of Puerto Rico in order to identify and meet their needs with the support we have been receiving from committed individuals and groups in Puerto Rico and the diaspora (in the US, Europe, Latin America) and other countries. If you wish to contribute to the efforts of the brigade, you can do it via PayPal to: brigadasolidariaoeste@gmail.com. http://isrcr.be/bso/10/?fbclid=IwAR2ugX4B7VYIX3MLqmWMIwMzTeZNbPBX3LYkAYGWtPjwI51W3MBolheE2EU
