Global Solidarity Network Seattle (GSNS)

Neighbors helping neighbors—no salaries, no bureaucracy, just people showing up. Every resource we share, every hand we extend, comes from this simple belief: nobody should face hardship alone.

100% volunteer-run 0% paid staff

GSNS is a tiny but relentless mutual aid collective rooted in land justice and community survival. We tried the big systems, the policy paths, the nonprofit playbook. They were already too far gone. So we chose a different road the one where people take care of each other directly. We gather resources, run free-store sites, raise emergency funds, and mobilize quickly for neighbors facing displacement, hunger, or crisis. No hierarchies, no waitlists, no paperwork. Just people helping people however we can, for as long as we can. Our mission is to meet urgent needs today while growing the kind of community that could survive tomorrow.
