Please join us in supporting our larger New Mexico community during these times of increased economic hardship in our ABQ Involved COVID Fund and Drive. In September, ABQ Involved has teamed up with MoGro to assist them in providing much needed items to those living in the community of Ramah, New Mexico.
MoGro has recognized a distinct need in this community that has only received sporadic donations throughout the pandemic. MoGro is delivering large monthly distributions of healthy, culturally relevant foods based largely on requests. People in Ramah have provided MoGro with a long list of items they would get if they were able to easily make a trip to the grocery store themselves. This month, for example, MoGro will be roasting 700 pounds of green chile and each family will get a five pound bag, ready for peeling!
Monetary donations to ABQ Involved are especially helpful for this drive. Your donations will help with the cost of MoGro’s monthly travel to Ramah to deliver supplies, as well as to purchase bulk food items (like 700 pound of chile)! We will grant 100% of your donation to MoGro’s effort in Ramah. Click the button below to donate.
We are also requesting donations of household and personal hygiene supplies. Needed items include: toilet paper, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, diapers and toiletry items (shampoo/conditioner, soap, lotion, etc.) Please remember distributions to Ramah are infrequent, so bulk and large volume items are greatly appreciated.
You may purchase items and drop them off with ABQ Involved on Monday, September 14th and Tuesday, September 15th from 10am-6pm.
We will have contactless drop off - just place your items to be donated in the trunk of you car.
Questions? Need to arrange for a different drop off time? Call or text us at 505-695-2613 or email us at admin@abqinvolved.org.
