Other supplies for the Madison protesters:

I am told that the protesters at the capitol in Madison have all the pizza they can eat. Maybe they need some other food or drink for a change.

Maybe they need coffee, tea, cocoa, fruit, deli sandwiches, etc. My daughter has shuttled bottled water to the teachers there. Inside the capitol, there is a group of grad students with coffee for people who come in to get warm. She donated a coffee pot and a bag of coffee.

I know that there have been lists of other business who are helping out. Those lists have been posted on DU.

The Willy Street Co-op is a store I am familiar with, and it is a good place. On their website, they say:

After receiving multiple emails and calls from owners wanting to donate cash toward food and supplies to protesters at the Capitol,we have created a system to accommodate the many, many callers who wanted to add to the supply budget. We will be delivering food/water to whichever side of the issue the callers would like us to deliver to.

(As if anyone in that part of town wants to support the right wing).

They give specific instructions, and continue:

Willy Street Co-op does not support any political party or candidate, but we do support workers having a voice in their workplace.

Tomorrow, I am going to call the co-op and add some money to their supply budget. I will try to make some specific requests about the type of food and drink I would like sent.

I am not affiliated with this business but I recommend them highly. Maybe some other DUers would like to send them something so they can feed protesters.

My seventies days.

Will be helping them out in the morning.

Thanks!
