Summary:
This series documents the internal administration of the Cambridge Eviction Free Zone, particularly its committees, fundraising efforts, interactions with other organizations, and publications. Of particular interest are the files from Komite Kreyol, EFZ's first immigrant outreach committee. The series contains files relating to grant-making organizations, such as The Boston Foundation and Haymarket People's Fund. Included in this series are nine computer disks (one 5 ¼ inch floppy disk and eight 3 ½ inch floppy disks) which could not be opened by Archives staff (Box 1, Folder 5). Some materials, including Cambridge Economic Opportunity Committee files, predate the founding of EFZ. Records include meeting minutes and agendas, correspondence, budgets and financial records, grant proposals and reports, membership and volunteer lists, press clippings, newsletters, flyers, and brochures.
