Help Hold Space for Peace with the Oakland Peace Center
Peace Begins with You | Violence, Hate, and Injustice End with Us
Answer the Call for Peace
We invite you to join us in building space for community and healing. The Oakland Peace Center (OPC) provides affordable space for collaboration, innovation, changemaking and wellbeing. We create a network of BIPOC-led emotional, spiritual and organizational support for educators, advocates, activists, musicians, youth and families. Your support helps to sustain and grow a collective vision and system to bring about a city of hope, justice, nonviolence and compassion.
OPC has recently acquired the property at 111 Fairmount! As stewards of this land and historic building, we are excited to create space for individual and collective peace. We are partnering with the Unity Council to develop affordable housing on-site. In a world where it is illegal to be unhoused, having a safe place to call home is essential to peace. OPC is eager to hold space for peace in a new way while we continue other capacity and community building programs like the Beloved Book Club, Leadership Speaker Series, Community Resilience Garden, and offering communal gathering space.
Your contributions also enable us to maintain affordable space for the peace and justice work carried out by our in-house partners and community groups at the Oakland Peace Center. Together, we advocate for and facilitate access to essential resources, opportunities for growth, justice, and inner peace throughout in Oakland and beyond. Your donation makes a tangible difference in our community. Peace begins with You. Violence, hate, and injustice end with Us.
