About


In the spring of 2020, an imperative social movement began in response to white supremacy and the police brutality it enables. Protesters, social justice workers, and activists took to the streets to proclaim the truth, and demand a better future.

Supply Hive founders Aaliyah Quinn and Zakariyah Hill knew that any movement requires logistics; food, water, supplies, and support that enabled people to join and stay in the fight. At first, Aaliyah and Zakariyah were focused solely on nourishing the movement; but as their crowd-sourced funding grew, and people were eager to join them, it sparked an idea. 

What if the concept of nourishment and support could be extended beyond that crucial moment in time? What if we could look at ways to sustainably nourish marginalized communities and peoples? 

What if support were extended in new ways to create real and lasting change in ways that the Des Moines and central Iowa community had not seen before? 

Supply Hive's mandate to help marginalized communities is not unique, but the deep intersectionality between groups and sustainability are.

Won't you join us?
