Please keep donating funds, shopping and dropping off supplies for mutual aid in Minneapolis and beyond! It’s never been more clear that we the people keep us safe and fed, and that we’re all we’ve got.

Thanks to support from our community, CANMN was able to respond the hunger crisis caused by the federal occupation. We went from serving around 300-400 boxes a week in December 2025 to packing 600-800 boxes a week starting in January 2026, and it shows no signs of slowing.

We’re so grateful to everyone who has donated, volunteered, hosted supply drives, and shared our posts.

In solidarity,
CANMN Crew

It’s been a wild year at CANMN and it’s only February 🤪 But we’re locked in for the long haul and thanks to your generous donations, we stocked our shelves and acquired extra storage space so we can serve more neighbors.

For those who want to host supply drives on our behalf or shop and drop off donations, please use this list! We are only accepting very specific items at this time, no food.

In Solidarity,
CANMN Crew

For the first time in our history as a org we are pausing all physical donations for a little while! Massive shout out to everyone who has dropped off supplies to us this month. It’s incredible to see how much abundance we can access as a collective.

CANMN does not need additional volunteers at this time but help is needed everywhere across the metro.

During times of acute crisis - like an uprising or occupation - spontaneous mutual aid zones will form wherever there is space and hands to stack boxes. Think bars, cafes, garages, schools, offices, warehouses, porches and your fav Uptown s*x shop. These decentralized sites are important because it makes aid more accessible. And sometimes they turn into long term projects (Hi, it’s CANMN lol).

Make mutual aid connections in the comments. Be smart. Stay warm. Feed your neighbors! We keep us safe!
