There Is a Lane for You. Here's How to Step Into It.

FAN mobilizes allies to provide material support to grassroots organizations led by Black, Southeast Asian, and other women and queer people of color in Wisconsin. Material support doesn't mean standing on the sidelines wishing you could help. It means showing up, contributing what you have, and following the leadership of those most impacted. Every form of participation listed below is a form of material support. Pick the one that fits your capacity. Then do it.

The Work Needs All of It

Some of us can show up in person. Some of us can give money. Some of us can share analysis with people who need to hear it. Some of us have professional skills that grassroots organizations need and can't afford. Some of us are just learning and need to stay informed before we take the next step. All of it matters. All of it is the work. The only thing that doesn't help is doing nothing.

What You Can Do Right Now

[Current Actions →](/take-action/current-actions)

The most urgent things happening right now — hearings, protests, petitions, rapid response. If you can only do one thing today, start here.

[Events →](/take-action/events)

Cultural events, political education sessions, Freedom Schools, volunteer trainings, community gatherings. FAN brings people together around food, music, art, and learning — because the movement is not just meetings.

[Sign a Petition →](/take-action/sign-petition)

Add your name to the demands. Petitions are not just lists — they are political education. Every signature is a statement that this demand is reasonable, necessary, and backed by a constituency that will not be ignored.

[Stay Informed →](/take-action/stay-informed)

Not ready to jump in? Start here. Sign up for updates. Follow the analysis. Learn the political framework. Getting informed is not passive — it is preparation.

[Volunteer →](/take-action/volunteer)

Bring your skills. Bring your time. Bring your body. FAN connects volunteers to the work that needs doing — research, outreach, event support, digital organizing, and direct material support to partner organizations.

[Wisconsin State Resources →](/take-action/wisconsin-state-resources)

Know your rights. Find services. Access the resources that keep communities safe and supported. Knowledge is material support — share it.

Not Sure Where to Start?

If you're new to this work — if you're a cis-man trying to figure out what supporting feminist abolition looks like in practice, if you're a white person who wants to support racial justice without centering yourself, if you're anyone who shares these values and doesn't know where you fit — start with Stay Informed. Read. Learn. Then come to an event. Meet people. The lane will become clear. We were all new once. The only mistake is staying on the sidelines.
