This is a great idea. And whether you are helping Ian's area in Minneapolis or your own local food bank, please remember that donating money to a food bank is one of the most efficient ways to help those in need!
I’m raising money for Groveland Emergency Food Shelf, a South Minneapolis nonprofit that provides emergency groceries for those in need. They’re currently struggling to keep up with demand, and they’re getting their first $16k in donations matched.

I’ve got $50 on it! Can anyone match me?

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.

I really enjoyed the huddle today and resonated with Jasmine's story. Honestly, despite how outgoing I can be I feel a little silly for not being transparent about my own journey with trying to be grateful, celebrate my wins, and rewire my brain. Maybe I could have helped people become familiar 1/2

This is SUCH a valuable tool for freelancing. You would be a fool not to check it out. Sam worked so hard on it and it shows: it’s crisp, clean, and literally something good enough to pay to use.
I just finished my 100 hours project and wanted to share it with the 100Devs community.

So tech-related question: how likely is it to see something I exclusively typed on VScode show up on Facebook a few minutes later? I didn’t type it anywhere else, or even say it out loud. 😨

!Checkin. Regardless of me having seen Marcia's videos before it was great to hear her story again and hear the details that weren't in them. Her story really drives home the things Leon talks about in theory. Also? I took notes. If you want them hmu. I handwrite them, once I'm finished typing 1/2

Jackie tuned in for Huntober but she wasn’t really vibing with what Leon was saying. I think it’s because she’s a weirdo.

That was a nice strong start to Huntober. It reminded me of this video. youtu.be/mLuiruce9qE?...
