On the mend after several years of dealing with difficult health issues, Rachel Cleveland wanted to share her love of reading while giving back to her Twin Cities community. With a master in public policy and background in nonprofit work and development, the idea for Little Charity Book Truck was born.
By not having a brick and mortar storefront, Little Charity Book Truck has very few administrative and overhead costs. Similarly, all individuals involved with the book truck are volunteers, so every dollar made through book purchases goes directly back into the community. It’s truly a passion project. Reading books while helping others, what could be better?
Little Charity Book Truck is Minnesota’s only 501(c)(3) non-profit mobile bookstore. Powered by book-loving volunteers, we donate every dollar made. By buying books from us, you are directly giving back to the communities where you live. To learn more about the organizations we support, visit the donation page. Read more, help more.

Plot Twist Vienna Lager is officially on tap!
Emagine Theater and Utepils Brewing Collab! Plot Twist comes to you with a few stamps on its passport — via Mexico, by way of Germany.
In the late 1800s, German immigrants to Mexico brought their beer recipes from back home, including the classic Vienna Lager. Somewhere along the line, a bit of lime was added to the mix, because heck, why not? The result is full-bodied and smooth, with just a touch of tartness on the tip of the tongue.
VIPER Taproom Early Release Party!
