Other updates on the space:

-We currently have funding from our supporters for $757 a month!  
THANK YOU THANK YOU!
This means we are meeting our estimated money-credit needs to keep the space open!
We did have a super high heating bill this month and had to make some repairs in the space, so we always appreciate your support.
If you can afford a $5 monthly donation that is huge.

Some expenses they past few months are buying shelves for our basement to get things off the ground (both sump pumps failed recently and had to be replaced, we want to get better organized). We also got a new grab bars for our bathroom.

Donate to The Rhizome House here.
