Sustain Your Space!

Support the Free Space to thrive at our new home, 3747 Minnehaha Avenue!

Operating expenses at the new Minnehaha Free Space cost between $1,200 and $1,500 per month.  We’ve committed to at least 3 years at 3747 Minnehaha, and contributions from community members like you – particularly monthly sustaining donations – are what will help us thrive that long and hopefully longer.

On our WePay donation page, choose the “monthly” option to give a fixed amount every month towards making the Free Space sustainable and long-lasting.

Any amount meaningful to you — as little as $3 or as much as you can afford per month — helps give us a source of income we can rely on. You choose the monthly amount that fits your ability and desire for the Free Space to thrive well into the future!  $5, $10,  $25, $50, or a custom amount — its up to you.

Of course, we love one-time donations, too.  Either way, click to give now:

What if I don’t want to donate online?

One-time donations can be made in person or through mail at 3747 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55406.

To make a monthly contribution, WePay is easy and secure – but here are some other methods for those who may not want to donate online:

• ACH (Automatic checking withdrawal): Fill out an ACH (automatic checking withdrawal) form, available in person at the Minnehaha Free Space or online here, and give it to a Free Space volunteer along with a voided check.  ACH automatically deducts from your checking account on the last day of every month – you can set it and forget it.
• Contact your bank to set up automatic bill pay through your checking or savings account.  The bank can automatically cut us a check each month.  Have them send it to: Minnehaha Free Space, 3747 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55406.  Checks should be made out to “MARS” (unless you require your donation to be tax-deductible; see instructions below).
• Pay by cash or check.  You can mail a well-concealed check or cash to: Minnehaha Free Space, 3747 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55406, or give it to a collective member at the space.  We’ll take your information and assign a “delegate” to remind you of your dues each month.

If you have questions, don’t hesitate: talk to a collective member you know or email us at radspacetc@gmail.com.  Operators are standing by!

Join your neighbors and comrades in making a radical space that can last by pitching in today. Thank you!

Can I make a tax-deductible contribution?

Yes! Here’s how.

Sisters’ Camelot, the mobile food-share nonprofit whose mission is to create sustainability in the Twin Cities, has generously agreed to become our fiscal sponsor.  To make a tax-deductible donation to the Free Space, you must make your check out to “Sisters’ Camelot” and put “MARS” in the memo.  Then, mail it to us at:

Minnehaha Free Space
3747 Minnehaha Ave
Minneapolis, MN 55406

We will forward the check to Sisters’ Camelot, who will send you a receipt.  Your donation will help sustain the Free Space in the years to come.
