Image 2 Alt Text: Coat Donations: People who have been detained by ICE are being released likely without a coat.  I've secured 2 locations to bring your winter gear donations.  Items to consider donating:  Winter coats, Winter accessories (hats, gloves, scarf), Socks (just in case), Burner phone (if you want to go above and beyond)

Image 3 Alt Text: Whipple Pick-up Tips: Federal Dr, Minneapolis, MN 55417. - Those who are detained at Whipple are getting released while little to nothing.  I want to preface again, there is NO real process to this.  You will be camping out.  It is suggested you bring another person with you.  After you've picked up a coat to have if needed: Pull up to Henry Whipple Federal Building.  Wait for people to exit the building that look as though they have been detained.  Ask them if they need help getting home.  Bonus: Bring them to American Pie Pizza for a warm meal as you figure out where to take them.

Image 4 Alt Text: Relish in Northeast Minneapolis is offering to collect coat donations for those who are Minneapolis based that are interested in dropping off their donations.  Highly recommend grabbing some comfort food and supporting this small woman-owned business after bringing your donation!  Especially because they care so much for their community.  The address is: 700 Central Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN 55414
