Everywhere on the planet, those spaces, places, and resources that we share and hold in common are being targeted and exploited for personal gain and corporate profit. It is up to all of us to preserve whatever commons we still have, and to forge new ones whenever possible. The Omni Commons has tremendous potential to become a critical community space. In order to ensure our doors can open, and remain open, we need your help today. https://omnicommons.org/donate Love and Solidarity, The Omni Commons Fundraising Working Group -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
