What is it?
SW Mutual Aid Collective is a fund created by sex workers for use by sex workers. Our goal is to quickly, efficiently and privately give out financial aid, contraceptives, harm reduction supplies and other materials to our community without significant wait times or other barriers that harm the most marginalized members of our community.
Is it private?
Yes. We will never give out any information you give us. We also don't need to know your real name or even why you need the money. We trust you.
What can I get & how does it work?
We offer $100.00 micro grants. As long as there is money available it will be paid out immediately after verification. Once there is not enough in the fund you will be put on a wait list and receive the funds as soon as there is money available again. This works on a first come first serve basis.
We also have:
- Plan B
- Condoms
- Internal Condoms (Female Condoms)
- Clean Needles
- Fentanyl Test Strips
- Narcan (Naloxone)
Sometimes we are able to provide other supplies like diapers, groceries, disabilities or mobility aides. Please include which items you'd like to have in the request form!
Where does my contribution go?
100% of contributions go directly to our micro grants. We believe the fund should be accessible to all sex workers in our community, so it is possible that one of us could be a grant recipient, but we do not profit from this. All operational costs are covered by us and never taken out of the fund.
Can I get a tax deduction?
Yes, you can. If you would like a receipt for your taxes you can email us at: SWMutualAidVegas@gmail.com
Can I help?
