Your free 5-page website
A short, welcoming request path for rides, groceries, supplies or other needs, with no judgment.
How neighbors can give time, items or skills, and what you ask for in return, which is usually nothing.
A plain explanation of what mutual aid is, who runs the group and how requests are handled.
A list of items or funds needed right now, updated often.
Group principles, safety notes and how to reach a coordinator.
What a mutual aid website has to do in ten seconds
Someone who needs groceries this week may be anxious about asking. Someone with a car wants to help today. Your site should make both moves feel easy.
- Offer two plain buttons: "I need help" and "I can help".
- State what you can and cannot do, such as the neighborhood you cover.
- Use warm, short sentences with no insider language.
- Keep the request form short. Ask only for what you need to help.
What is free and what Website Care covers
The build is free and matches our Launch Website, normally $399 one time: up to 5 pages, designed for you, words drafted from a consultation, mobile-friendly, and 10 revision rounds.
Website Care at $30/month is required. It covers hosting, HTTPS, backups, weekly checks, A/B testing and small edits like updating current needs. It is the only cost. Recurring plans can be canceled anytime. Need more than 5 pages? We quote it first. See how it works.
How people find mutual aid on Google and in AI assistants
People search "mutual aid near me", "help with groceries this week", "neighbors helping neighbors" or "how to start a mutual aid network". Every page has clear titles and descriptions, headings that match, structured data so Google and AI assistants like ChatGPT understand your service area, an XML sitemap and fast mobile pages.
Your area and details are written the same way everywhere. We cannot promise rankings or results. The Monthly SEO add-on, from $50/month, is optional.

Must-haves and pitfalls for mutual aid sites
- Protect people asking for help. Never post names, addresses or stories without clear consent.
- Collect little data. Do not ask for immigration status, income proof or other sensitive details.
- Plan for safety. Use group contact points, not volunteers' home addresses.
- Be clear about funds. Say plainly how donations are used and who handles them.
If you work alongside a pantry, see food banks. Groups serving newcomers may also like immigrant support. Our donation flow guide covers giving buttons.
