A local Whittier family has had a family member detained and we are raising funds to help cover their legal costs related to reuniting the family and getting through this crisis. We know many people have already given generously these past weeks, but wouldn't you like a CAKE for giving? 🎂

“ICE might not break into my house and try to take one of my family members, because we’re all white” Fee told me. “But I’m not gonna not care, just because it’s not gonna happen to me. That’s irresponsible, that’s disrespectful, and it’s sinful, honestly.”

Today is Give to the Max day, & did u know MPS does not fund the arts, like theater. Camden Drama Club exists due to generous donations from ppl like u, and we have a $7,000 need to cover in order to continue to provide the best award-winning high school theater: www.givemn.org/organization...
Today is Give to the Max Day, and I humbly ask for your financial support. Minneapolis Public Schools does not fund arts programs, and due to this, we see a deep inequity in arts and theater funding. While students attending MPS schools in Southwest Minneapolis see an abundance of resources due to private funding, our Northside schools are left with v v few financial art & theater resources. Your generous donation will help fund Camden Drama Club (formally Henry Drama Club) and allow us to afford the rights to our plays, set design, costumes, props, professional theater coaches (vocal, intimate, fighting), etc.

Please donate here to support the most talented young thespians in the state of Minnesota: https://www.givemn.org/organization/Henry-Senior-High-SchoolCamden High School on Facebook:

Give to the Max Day is tomorrow. The money you donate can help support the Arts at Camden. Support our students in putting on great productions for our school community. Please click the link to donate!

The polls are officially open, Minneapolis! Today you can choose a different course for our city. You can choose a mayor who cares as much about your city and your neighbors as I know you do. We deserve better, Minneapolis. Rank me first when you vote today so we can do better – together.
