Holiday Commissary Fundraiser 2021: LIVE!
Our yearly effort to send holiday bonuses to LGBTQ and HIV+ incarcerated artists who contributed pieces to our most recent edition of A Queer Prisoner's Comix Anthology is on!!
We have a goal of raising $5000 by the end of November; this amount helps us cover a $100 bonus to each individual contributor, all the administrative fees charged by various prison facilities to send $$ inside, and some outstanding office expenses to keep A.B.O. HQ running into 2022.
Donating and sharing the fundraiser keeps our one-of-a kind project alive; thank you so much for your support!

emergency fundraiser for jeferson
We just launched a new fundraiser for our friend, Jeferson, who has been a contributor of ours since 2017. Jeferson spent 25 years in a United States Prison and was deported to Brazil shortly after he was released. He is now struggling to not only sustain himself, but also help those around him as he battles the dire conditions of COVID-19 in a country that has over 1.64 million confirmed cases. Putting the needs of his neighbors above his own, Jeferson wrote to us saying that "this is a time of solidarity and caring and sharing with the less favored ones."
Please help us raise funds for Jeferson and his support system by checking out our new GoFundMe Fundraiser.
