The Street Store and the Little Free Food Pantry are mutual aid projects initiated by Veronica at VAN GOGH DESIGN in Berkeley, California. I set aside a portion of design fees to cover the cost of materials and printing for both projects.
​
This page lists the business partners I have worked with while running both projects. These companies donated food, coffee, clothing, socks, bread and volunteer labor. ​

My next project for 2025 will be Project Care Bear. We will go on-site and offer Care Kits so folks living on the street and in RVs can take care of their skin, hair, nails, beards etc. Things like bandaids, polysporin for cuts, thick hand cream, baby wipes, dry shampoo, liquid soap. That kind of thing. It will be a Pop Up where we go door to door offering kits and asking people what they need. I am playing around with the name of the project and have a few good ideas in the works. I am looking for human Care Bears :) to help me distribute the supplies and pick up donations. The locations we will be going to are in West Berkeley. Please reach out if you're interested!
