Occupy Raleigh is thrilled to receive this support package from Occupy Supply. Today we will begin handing out the clothing as is needed. Those staying at the camp the most will have priority for the warmest supplies first, however everyone will be able to have something to help fill in whatever winter clothing niche is most lacking. This kind of support does wonders for morale. It gives a tangible reminder of how widespread this struggle is. Its reinforces the notion that many of us are banding together in this struggle. I often say that one of the great advantages of the 99% is that there are so many of us with different ideas, abilities, talents, resources, and knowledge. Not everyone can occupy but everyone can find some way to support the movement. Occupy Supply is a wonderful example and reminder of this.

Now that the media has lost interest in the occupations, the hard work begins. Do whatever you can to support your local occupy encampment through the winter.

The package from #OccupySupply arrived on a Saturday 12/17 and I made an arrangement with Josh at the Occupation to meet Sunday AM.

Josh had a list of the 24/7 campers and he was able to do a Mic Check and gather everyone. What a special moment to see the people awestruck with the Occupy label, union made and made in America.

Occupy Supply and Occupy San Antonio (OSA) are working together to keep occupiers going through the winter season. Base-layers, hats, scarves, blankets and duck coats have now been delivered and distributed from Occupy San Antonio HQ in Hemisfair Park, located downtown.

We’ve corralled all of the wonderful feedback we’ve received from our liaisons and the occupations they work so tirelessly to support, we are excited to invite you to check out our brand new #OccupySupply Headquarters

It’s been a busy few weeks at Occupy Tacoma. We can’t thank you enough for your second package filled with thermal underclothing, fleeces, jackets, hats and facemasks. The weather has been hovering in the 30′s all week, and so many occupiers have expressed their sincere gratitude for the extra warmth your donations provided them.

Another in our series of local occupation reports, this one from the FDL liaison for Salt Lake City. The post reports on the delivery of the first shipment of warm weather clothing to Occupy SLC. Photos show occupiers and lots of appreciation for the quality and thoughtfulness of the supplies.

FDL’s Occupy Supply liaison for Occupy St. Louis, popyeye99, reports on his recent delivery of supplies to and talks with the folks at Occupy St. Louis.

Give gifts that reflect your values this holiday season at our brand new Occupy Supply online store.

I, like so many of us, have much to be thankful for on this Thanksgiving 2011. I have the love of my family, even when we may not see each other for years at a time. I have my friends from all the times of my life, both “real” time and digital.

But for all the things we have to be thankful for, there are an equal number or more of things for which we cannot be thankful. Or at least, I cannot be thankful.
