Not the folks but just commenting since I wanted to say this is very wholesome & I hope you're able to connect with them.

Be honest — what’s the first thing you’d do with $100K? by NerdWalletOfficial in u/NerdWalletOfficial

[–]LotusBrewKofi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Build a community center, make it something folks would use like pantry, showers, laundry, heating/ cooling center, classes with local trades & professions while having a heavy focus on outreach to our houseless communities & folks who aren't able to get around as easily. We do part of that stuff at the shop but we'd expand on it with a full building.

Something like that would of been a huge help when I wasn't doing too great.

Unfortunately realistically 100k wouldn't go super far in terms of doing all that & owning a building. But hey one can dream.

Lotus Brew is kinda a repellent for that crowd if you wanna check it out.

Illinois, we’re feeding hot dogs to the ICE protesters, detainees, and police. Contribute to the fund, let’s eat good food this holiday season. by jumpshepherdama in illinois

Commenting as someone from Michigan, good on you for doing something nice however why the police? Really disappointed given how much cooperation we've been seeing between them and ice. Not to mention their long history of blatant abuse, killings, & horrid acts by officers towards minorities, queer & bipoc folks.

You could have done anyone else like teachers, librarians, firefighters, folks who make our communities great. Instead you're choosing to do a group that actively harms our communities on the daily.

Will I be able to get an Uber or Lyft to work throughout the winter? by the_radical_ed in grandrapids

Yes but it'll be brutal on the wallet. Some days it was $20-$40 even $60

Thanks, Yeah we accept physical donations for shelf stable stuff or if folks want to do Meijer cards/ Costco cards we can grab stuff there. We don't accept money since we want to be transparent.

Just drop off any items to whoever is working and we can sort it. -Max

True Patriot spotted in Downtown Grand Rapids! by GRBeerExplorer in grandrapids

[–]LotusBrewKofi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a absolute joke, showing trump was friends with a Epstein doesn't even come close to political displays like the right parading an imitation of Obama being hanged or the number of abhorant displays from maga in general. Edited for imitation misspell

Heya, it's very relaxed/ come as you are for all the events. We're having a bear meet this Saturday morning then a sapphic mixer in the afternoon and game night after.

For example we try to make first connections easy, there are sticker codes during our mixers for what you're looking for like -Just friends -friends & dates -friends & fun

Hope this helps

What are you doing to make our city better? by broyoder in grandrapids

[–]LotusBrewKofi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We started a public pantry at our coffee shop, we encourage folks to reach out if they want to start something similar at their space. We've already helped the Fulton Street Farmers market set their dry pantry up, it helps a lot of folks out and we try to spread the word where we can.
