We’re gathering supplies and resources for an upcoming training with Black youth across the Twin Cities. These contributions directly support the learning space, transportation, food, and care for the young people participating.

We can coordinate supply drop-offs at a public location. Financial contributions will help meet immediate needs for the training, with any remaining funds going into a mutual aid fund supporting Black foster youth and their families with essentials like groceries. Thank you for showing up for Black youth and investing in collective care.
