Community

Join us for a warm and welcoming Vegan Friendsgiving Potluck — a chance to meet other vegans, make new friends, and share delicious plant-based food with people who share the same values.

Bring a vegan dish to share and post in the group what you’re bringing so we can avoid duplicates.

Come hungry, come friendly, and come ready to connect.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

On Friday, Nov. 21, the Columbus Police Foundation, FOP Local 9, and the Greater Eastside Coalition, in collaboration with the Department of Neighborhoods and local area commissions, will host the annual Far Eastside Turkey Giveaway. This initiative, supporting Mayor Ginther’s Eastland for Everyone Plan, aims to provide complete holiday meals to hundreds of residents who might otherwise go without a festive meal.

It's Trans Awareness Week! But what does that mean for trans Ohioans, and their allies?

Recognized yearly from November 13-19, Trans Awareness Week was created to celebrate how far we've come in the fight for trans liberation, and highlight areas where there’s still plenty of work to do.

The following day, November 20, we recognize Transgender Day of Remembrance and honor, grieve, & uplift victims of transphobic violence.

After a long and difficult government shutdown many Ohioans are looking for a moment to reconnect, reflect, and move forward together. Few figures symbolize unity, courage, and community more than Rosa Parks.

This year marks the 20th Annual Statewide Tribute to Rosa Parks — 20 years since I led the effort for Ohio to become the first state to designate December 1 as Rosa Parks Day.

It remains a milestone that unites our communities and leaders.

This event is held every Sunday.

Let’s stand up for democracy while building a community via a postcard writing party. We will supply cards, snacks and drinks. Feel free to bring anything to make the postcards more fun to read with stickers or markers. For those who are able, stamps are appreciated.
