Updated July 27, 2020

YWCA Minneapolis is here for our neighbors in need. We have created a pop-up distribution hub at YWCA Midtown to ensure our neighbors have groceries, personal hygiene items and other supplies.

Pick Up Food and Supplies

Open to everyone! People can pick up food and supplies at YWCA Midtown (2121 East Lake Street, Minneapolis, MN 55407).YWCA Midtown's Pop-Up Distribution Center is moving to an online reservation system. We are moving to this system to help ensure the safety and comfort of our community members, and to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

We rely on donations from the community and may not have every kit or personal care item available. We will make every effort to fulfill your request for additional supplies.
