Events every day
Current needs
- When you first walk into the Occupy Boston camp in Dewey Square from the South Station side you see on your left the Logistics tent. Close by are boards listing current needs for the camp. Off camp the most current list seems to be the one generated by OBLogistics on twitter at http://twitter.com/#!/OBLogistics. There is also a list at http://occupyboston.wikispaces.com/Donate but at this edit that list is 11 days old. The Logistics page on this wiki is also a little out of date.
Work at Dewey Square

- The main occupy Boston website at http://occupyboston.org is the place to go Currently on the right hand side are lists of various funds that have been set up for donations and links to an easy way to make donations.
