As Twin Cities Pride continues to fill the financial gap left by uninviting Target from its 2025 events, six Twin Cities co-ops are stepping up.

The co-ops — Eastside, Lakewinds, Mississippi Market, Seward, Valley Natural, and Wedge — have pledged a $28,700 donation to the Twin Cities Pride safety fund.

The co-ops announced the donation on social media, and confirmed to Bring Me The News that they'll be delivering the donation this week.

"As community-owned cooperative grocers, we've always been spaces where every member of our vibrant neighborhoods can find a sense of belonging, friendship, safety, and, of course, delicious local food," the co-ops wrote in a statement.

Makes my heart glad to see people calling them out.

I canceled my Red Card and disabled my online account with them today, and told them exactly why. Got a ski trip coming up and when I get back I'm headed to Costco to sign up, even though I live alone. I just hope they hold the line because I'm running out of places to shop!
