Dear Friends and supporters of the Omni Commons.
All of us at the Omni Commons wish you, our friends and supporters, a safe
and healthy holiday season. This has been a difficult and challenging year
for so many people because of the pandemic and resulting economic crisis.
It has been and continues to be difficult and challenging for those of us
at the Omni Commons. That’s why we’re asking you to make a generous
donation to our GoFundMe or Facebook Campaigns to save the Omni Commons,
which continues to face a financial challenge. Donations to our Facebook
campaign on #GivingTuesday, Dec. 1, are matched,

Four years ago, the collectives that make up the Omni Commons obtained a
loan to purchase the building at 4799 Shattuck Avenue in North Oakland.
Since then, we have offered event space to the wider community and
workspace to collectives on a sliding-scale basis. The Shelter-in-Place
order issued in mid-March in response to the pandemic, as well as
subsequent restrictions, have prohibited the gatherings that rent our event
space and provide half of the income to make our monthly loan payments and
keep the Omni Commons open.
We have been able to keep the building open for the essential services that
some of our collectives provide to the community. Additionally, we
collaborated in forming the North Oakland Mutual Aid Drive together with
other community organizations. The Omni has become a local distribution
site for the curbside and low-income communities, disproportionately people
of color, in North Oakland. We’re using our ballroom and entrance hall to
gather canned food, water, masks, hand sanitizer and other items, and then
distribute these items to those who need them.
While the Omni Commons continues to keep the building open for our
collectives to offer essential services, we now face a big challenge. In
the midst of pandemic restrictions limiting our income, we must refinance
the original five-year loan on the building by May 1, 2021. We’re working
hard to save enough money to show lenders that we are able to make loan
payments until restrictions are lifted and it’s safe to open up event
rentals again. So, we’re asking you, our friends and supporters, to make a
generous contribution to our GoFundMe campaign to Save the Omni Commons. If
you can make a contribution to help us through this crisis, we will thank
you from the bottom of our hearts.

Thanks, Dave! I gave through Givful. Mentioning both to make sure the
donation gets received and also in case anyone else has an employer
matching program they might want to take advantage of. (I didn't really
expect Omni Commons to be in there, but it was!)

Thank you, Alessandro !
If Sudo Room & Sudo Mesh folks want to tweet support for Omni Commons on
Twitter, I can retweet on OC twitter.
I plan to retweet the shit out of pro- Save the Omni Commons messages (Dave
style.)
Already did for Counter Culture Labs tweet !
https://mobile.twitter.com/omnicommons/status/1334292514207981568
If folks have recommendations for wording the tweet, I am all eyes. I am
all about participatory social outreach.
Same thing for IG social media, for messaging. Silver has been nailing that
down really strongly !
Also Facebook, Myspace, Mastodon, homing pigeon messenger, and telekinesis
works well too.
