Kindness doesn't have to cost-- you can always volunteer. My family and I are at @CEAP_MN today helping with their annual toy program. What groups do you like to volunteer with? ❤️ Holly

I'm so excited about the great collection of fresh produce @CEAP_MN has for Farm Fresh in the Fast Lane. So glad to be part of building a healthy community. 🍉 Holly

“We are really in the thick of it right now,” said @CEAP_MN President Clare Brumback, speaking about her nonprofit’s food shelf. “And I expect demand to skyrocket over the coming months.” Full story: gtcuw.org/covid19ceap/

Thank you to ALL food shelves in Minnesota, but especially @iocpinterfaith, @KeystoneMN, @CEAP_MN, @HallieQBrownCtr, & @NeighborsInc for your partnership, your commitment to community, and your critical work.

Staying home helps slow the spread of COVID-19. It can also make it harder to reach out for help. If you're in a crisis, feeling suicidal, or thinking of harming yourself, you're not alone. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255 health.state.mn.us/communiti…
Food shelves are reporting increased visits (some serving 2-3X more households than they typically see this time of yr) and slowing donations. Consider making a $$$ donation to your local food shelf NOW. They can stretch your donation and purchase what your neighbors need. 2/3

Thank you @GovTimWalz for including food shelves in the list of essential services!
Replying to @GovTimWalz
These are trying times. But we are Minnesotans. We see challenges, and we tackle them. No matter how daunting the challenge; no matter how dark the times; Minnesota has always risen up—by coming together. If we unite as One Minnesota, we will save lives. #StayHomeMN
This is why food shelves need us more than ever right now. Families with less financial resources = less food resources. Our number one priority is getting food to our partners so that every member of the family can eat three meals a day. ow.ly/Rh7P50yUs6O

One reason #WeLoveMNW is the strong community. @CEAP_MN is offering a curbside food market and continuing Meals on Wheels. A $50 donation feeds a family of four—PLUS, every dollar is being doubled and matched by Minnesota FoodShare! bit.ly/2WtYoDt
