Join BQIC for our community outreach program, Free Resource Fridays!

Free Resource Friday is a donation-based initiative to provide free resources like food, clothes, and hygiene items to folks living in predominantly Black, low income neighborhoods. Volunteers distribute items, share information, and provide support for local communities in need.

All are welcome, but QTPOC take priority within the space.

This month, FRF will be a drive-through event and masks are required. Come out today from 4pm to 6pm for free resources such as food, clothing and hygiene products.

If you'd like to support Free Resource Fridays by donating materials, or if you'd like to get involved by offering a skill-share, mini-workshop or educational class, contact us! We are always looking to foster and strengthen our partnerships in the Central Ohio community. We are also accepting donations at the event, particularly warm washed winter clothing as the weather is getting colder.

Please also consider supporting Community Grounds by purchasing items in the cafe or donating to their business.
