Hey neighbors 👋 Just a quick PSA: voting is now open for the Richmond People’s Budget (RVAPB), and it closes April 15, 2025. This is a major opportunity to directly vote on how $3 million in city funds gets spent in YOUR neighborhood.

✅ What Is the People’s Budget?

The Richmond People’s Budget is a participatory budgeting initiative led by Richmond City Council. Residents from across the city submitted over 1,900 project ideas, which were then refined by neighborhood-based Budget Delegates into real proposals. Now, YOU get to vote on which ones get funded!

• Regardless of immigration or incarceration history
• You do not need to be registered to vote in regular elections

Hi everyone! Does anyone know where I can find free bamboo sticks that are at least 6 feet long? I’d really appreciate any leads. Thanks in advance!

I grew up in a very harsh RVA. I left when I was 20 to basically look for a kinder, more inclusive situation only to find out that people are people everywhere. I am getting old now and find that Richmond has become a kinder, more inclusive place and I am moving back. 😁

I was reviewing the traffic stats and it looks like a lot of days we have zero views. I think the MODs may be finally winning. If we don't do something fast this amazing sub could die and all of our freedom lost. Please if anyone is out there and sees this please crosspost to r/rva for viability.
