Mission: RUMAH, short for the Raleigh United Mutual Aid Hub, is a collaborative community and social center in Raleigh, North Carolina, with 501(c)(3) status. We foster collaboration between residents, communities, and mutual aid resources in and around Raleigh, and are funded almost entirely by donations from community members who share our vision.

RUMAH's Vision

We envision a stronger community with accessible spaces where people across all backgrounds and affinities feel a sense of belonging. We aim to build solidarity through shared knowledge, experiences, and ideals. We hope to create space for the sharing of resources by hosting workshops, skill-shares, and community-sourced programming. Through these initiatives and community collaboration, we will unify in action by serving the community in ways we want, need, and deserve to be served.

RUMAH's Values

We value the principles of collaborative, non-hierarchical structures with equal power dynamics, and seek to consistently evaluate to meet them.
We value basic human rights, and insist that each and every person deserves access to safe drinking water, nutritious food, adequate shelter, healthcare, and self-determination.
We value environmental justice, education, and sustainable practices through free education on permaculture and local environmental awareness and action.
We value community, the mutualistic web of relationships through which we are able to organize at all.
We believe everybody has something of value to offer, and that we are strongest when we work together as equals to achieve common goals. Community is a right and not a privilege!
We value transparency, as it is absolutely necessary for effective communication, collaboration, and trust. We do not willfully withhold, obscure, or delay information regarding our operations, and strive to be responsive to requests for information from our members, partners, and community. Note that we also maintain private persons', businesses', and organizations' right to determine how and what information is shared about them by us.
We value autonomy, in the sense of self-direction and freedom from constraint. We trust individuals' knowledge of their own communities and the needs of themselves and their neighbors. In offering assistance to individuals and projects we allow them to lead while we do our best to provide the support they ask for. We seek to be a catalyst for local grassroots organizing.
We value a diversity of perspectives, identities, and lived experiences.
We value creative expression as a valid and vital form of revolution; an outlet and tool for engaging, motivating and changing the community.
