Menstrual Supplies

by Anna Quady

In Bathrooms at Zion

You may notice something new when you walk into a bathroom at Zion. Along with the usual supplies like toilet paper, hand soap, and hand dryers, there will now also be pads and tampons available.
A donation has been made to supply the bathrooms of Zion with menstrual products for the next year. The goals of this project are to improve access to period products within the community and reduce the stigma around menstruation.

Acknowledging and providing for this need also connects to a deeper message that everybody has a place here.

If you are interested in learning more about this project, or if you have a business with a restroom you need to supply with period products and want assistance getting started, please email PeriodofChangeMN@gmail.com.

Blessing Closet Donations and Distributions

How many times have you heard or said the following:
“I want to donate my family clothes but not to a business or thrift store that turns around and makes money off my clothing.” “I want my clothing donation to go to people who need it.”
Donating to the Blessing Closet can make both statements come true. We accept new or slightly used, clean, and washed kids and adult clothing along with any shoes. Anything that clients cannot use will be recycled with no items sent to landfills. Donations are accepted on Wednesdays in a ‘marked donation cart’ at the front door waiting for you to just drop off between 8:30am and 4:30pm. If it is an extra-large donation or you can’t make the time frame, please make an appointment by calling 763-317-6052. Distributions are held quarterly at Zion in Trinity Hall for all children and their families. Thousands of items of clothing are displayed for infants, toddlers, children, and adults. Everyone is welcome! There are no income or residency requirements to qualify for the FREE clothing. The quarterly distributions last year served 485 families including 1,239 kids and 761 adults with 37,790 items of clothing. In Total, that is $87,540 of value benefitted the community. WHAT A BLESSING!! Please consider volunteering. You not only enable others to achieve their dreams for success and self-sufficiency, but you help build a stronger community.
