We were able to fill 9 emergency grants this month and have 22 emergencies remaining in our backlog, please help if you can!

With the fracturing of social media we've decided to start a BTC newsletter to update on what is going on with the collective - publications, microgrants, activism and mutual aid in #archaeology. We expect to post 1-2 times a month. Sign up here: groups.google.com/g/btc-updates

This month we could only fill 7 grants! With over $7,000 needed for emergency requests and a backlog of $13,000 from this year alone, please consider monthly donations. Many requests this month are from those that are food insecure and/or facing medical emergencies.
