Why donate?

Since we've opened in Nov. 2004, Red Emma's has hosted over 200 events, not to mention providing a friendly, welcome, public, radical and progressive space for 12 hours a days, 7 days a weeks. So far, we've been scraping by, with startup money largely pulled out of our own pockets, and we've been more less managing to more or less pay the bills on coffee and book sales, but as anyone can tell you, running an independent bookstore is a very precarious proposition. Our vision for Red Emma's, especially in the next phase of the project(a new space we hope to be able to announce officially very soon now), is more than just a worker owned business with a commitment to independent and alternative literature and fair trade and organic food and drink - we really want to make our space even more of a resource for transforming Baltimore and building a better world - but we need your help to make this vision a reality.
