At Stay Woke Smoke Shop, we believe that a strong community is one that takes care of its members. Local rapper Wake Self was a recognized leader for the community in bringing to light what needs to be changed. That change can be facilitated with the help and support of community members. With his mission and spirit in mind, Stay Woke Smoke Shop has started distribution events for the transient population of Albuquerque, quarterly.  We fill backpacks with nonperishable food items and hygiene essentials such as deodorant, toothbrushes, sanitizer, etc. We pass out the health packs with a seasonal treat and drink at different areas around town. Currently we create 25 packs to pass out but with more funding and support we hope to double that number this year.

We have an Amazon wish list that contains our full list of items that we need in order to create the health packs. Depending on the season, we also include seasonal extras such as gloves and hats for winter and visors for summer.

 

Mutual Aid events are held quarterly and will be posted on our event calendar along with other local events that community organizations are hosting. Also on our website is a compiled list of resources for the transient population including names and locations of food banks, shelters, and service agencies. 

While nothing changes overnight, we believe in working to create a better tomorrow for our community and generations to come. In Wake's honor we continue to carry on his work and connection with the community.

Friends, family and followers, it's during this season that we see many others go without basic necessities. We want to do our part to help. To do so we're putting on a mutual aid project with the @wakeselffoundations and our friends @Daedelusteks. We will be building health packs to hand out the less fortunate. We will have donation drop offs at both StayWokeShop and Daedalusteks IT. We are accepting donations of the following items: Granola bars, Nut packs, Fruit cups, Trailmix packs, Protein bars, Jerky Sticks or other Indivually wrapped Protein snacks, Travel toothbrushes, Feminine products, Travel sanitizer, Travel wipes, or anything you can think may help! In Memory of Andy, we will continue to give back to our community, help the less fortunate and spread his message. We miss you Wake!
