Care team needed! Swap Monday 10/6, Sharefest and Annual Meeting 10/19 + help wanted and more

swap meet

Hello members of the Madison MAN (Mutual Aid Network) Cooperative,

First off, before anything else: We need to form a little care team to support a member on the west side, asap. Who's in? This will help our dear member, and it will also help us learn how to be better responders to our members' health needs. Please email info@madisonman.coop or text/call 608 443-8229 if you want to help.

We have many new members and many older members with expired ads, and this is a great time to reply and add to offers and wants on our website.

And - we'll host an everything swap on Monday October 6, 5:30-7pm at Social Justice Center 1202 Williamson st.
Bring items in good condition - whatever you like - and take what you wish. People bring plants, clothes, dishes, books, music, art, food, you name it. We do ask you to take what doesn't get claimed because we don't have a lot of storage space. We're still seeking co-hosting help, and will pay you MAN hours for your time. Please email info@madisonman.coop or text 608 443-8229 to offer your help.

Sunday October 19, 3-7pm we'll host our yearly Sharefest event (workshops, music, swap 4-7), general membership meeting and board election (3-4), and Jubilee fundraiser for our home base the Social Justice Center (4-7). All at SJC 1202 Williamson. Mark your calendars!

  • Help organize the Sharefest event
  • Offer a workshop at Sharefest
  • Offer art or music at Sharefest
  • Run for the Board of Directors of the Madison MAN Coop
  • Join our communications team or help with occasional communications work

Again, please reply to wants at this site, or email info@madisonman.coop or text 608 443-8229 to offer your help.
