About

Sanctuary Supply Depot is a Minneapolis-based mutual aid collective facilitating the collection and distribution of basic survival supplies for our unhoused neighbors.

Our volunteer team does regular distribution at the encampments several times per week, so we’ve built ongoing relationships of trust with the residents there. Our unhoused neighbors know best what they need, and we do our best to listen and provide it, whether that’s tents, tarps, fresh water, portable phone chargers, or jerry-rigging a portable camp toilet since the city refuses to provide portapotties. Your donations help us meet these needs and literally keep people alive. It's freezing to death (or hot as heck) out here in Minnesota— let's show up for our people. We take care of each other.

Since the city continues to evict encampments and bulldoze people’s belongings in the process, we find ourselves having to replace survival supplies regularly
