Maggie’s Toronto: Black Sex Worker Fund
Maggie's Toronto Sex Workers Action Project is Canada's oldest by and for sex workers' rights organization. We're launching the final phase of our COVID-19 emergency support fund for sex workers in Toronto & the GTA. These are funds dedicated to sex workers facing financial hardship due to COVID-19 and are left out of government supports or emergency aid.
Maggie's has decided that the final phase of our COVID-19 Sex Worker Emergency Support efforts will specifically focus on Black-identifying sex workers as recipients of the fund.
BCCF: Emergency Food Boxes
BCCF recognizes the enormous impact that COVID-19 has on our community. We are calling on all levels of government to provide adequate resources to families, to cover for childcare, lost wages, any financial ramifications, and adequate support for people facing homelessness and/or food insecurity. We started a campaign for emergency food boxes, and had such high-demand in our community and in Toronto. Thousands of applications and thousands of emergency food boxes have been, and continue to be delivered to those in need. We are grateful to all those who have supported financially and as volunteers.
