Supplies, Gear and Support for Street Medics

Hi, I'm Thomas Mahler, an activist and community organizer in Austin, Texas who is helping coordinate planning and resources for several new street medic organizations that are spinning up to help respond to the need for on the ground support in protest actions around the united states. I'm personally running this fundraiser to immediately be able to help cover some costs for these groups to get medical supplies, PPE and other operational support. If you are able to contribute I ask that you also donate equally to fundraisers for bail funds, injured protesters or BIPOC causes as well, or to them as priority if you can not contribute to both.

My goal is flexible, the more money available the better gear I can get for street medic teams to safely assist, the more new and existing street medic teams I can distribute to and more advanced kits can be assembled for trained EMT volunteers to have. If I raise more than is needed for our requirements, extra funds will be donated to the causes referenced above.

I will be carefully tracking costs, expenses and where all the money goes for transparency sake as well, and have volunteers around the country ready to help with scaling up our efforts of building and distributing kits as we need.

I'll update as well soon for some direct links to contribute direct material/supply needs to various groups in Austin and beyond as well as contacts for food donations to feed medics and others.

Our focus is on non-partisan medical care for all those in need during protest actions, operating on a mutual aid fashion to those in need.
