A clients crazy idea.

Do you have a crazy idea and don’t know where to get started? Call SPOKE. We’ve got you.

THE PROBLEM? A Global Pandemic.

Restaurants in Minnesota were closed and allowed to be open for take-out only. For the second time in a year. Because of these shut-downs, many of our restaurants are teetering on the edge of closure. Help is hard to come by.

THE SOLUTION? For SPOKE612, it was to open our list of contacts, take a crazy idea from a favorite chef and run with it, add an insane turnaround time, call in favors from our friends and colleagues, donate our time and talent and create a calendar to raise money for an industry we adore.

THE RESULT? More than $50,000 in cold hard cash.

The money raised has been donated directly to hospitality industry workers impacted by the mandated shut-downs.

"All the money raised goes right to the pockets of hospitality workers in need. All you have to do is show you are in that industry and based upon your needs and the funds we have, we’re going to write you a check."—Chef Justin Sutherland
