About


A number of CK regulars and their trusted comrades are working on delivering essential supplies to neighbors who are sheltering at home. They're tapping their own networks to try to cover costs, but we need to cast a broader net for our own teammates' work, and we'd like to be able to support other small and under-resourced grassroots groups working toward the same goal.

We remain committed to our original mission (preparing and delivering meals with water and handwarmers to unhoused neighbors in Minneapolis), so this page is a separate fund, specifically dedicated to delivering supplies to folks sheltering at home.

CK strongly encourages folks to connect directly with their immediate neighbors, housed and unhoused, and work together to meet needs by creating hyperlocal and sustained community care for anyone who is especially vulnerable. However, if donating to a shared fund like this is what's accessible to you right now, we appreciate your support.

Thank you!
