Join us for Head of the Lakes United Way’s Day of Caring on Wednesday, June 11th! Day of Caring is a community-wide event where hundreds of volunteers complete projects for local non-profit agencies. Volunteering is a direct and hands-on effort to help advance the missions of these local organizations. Not only does Day of Caring provide non-profits with valuable resources, it is also a great opportunity to educate volunteers about the important work non-profit organizations do in our community. Recruit your friends, family or co-workers to lend a hand.
Saturday, May 10th marks the largest one-day food drive in the nation – the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp out Hunger Food Drive. Letter carriers across the Duluth, Superior, Ashland, Bayfield and Cloquet communities will be collecting food on their route to support our local food banks. Please have your unopened, non-perishable donations by your mailbox by 9am. Volunteers will also be assisting letter carriers throughout the community so your donations may be picked up at a time earlier than your mail carrier typically arrives. If you want to help volunteer in the Twin Ports area, please sign up using the link provided below.
Come join us for the TNT xChange & The Spice and Tea Exchange’s Pizza Burger Seasoning Launch party! For every pizza and seasoning pack sold, $2 comes back to the Ronald McDonald House Northland Location in downtown Duluth. $1 from each pack of sauerkraut, pickles and bacon also comes back to the House that Love Built Duluth location. Your support helps to provide food, lodging, comfort, and compassion to families facing the unimaginable. Last year alone, RMHC-UM served over 5,400 families across five Minnesota locations — saving them valuable time and resources so they could focus entirely on their child’s health and healing. Every gift, big or small, makes a difference. Donate now!
Are you a pop culture junkie, history buff, science geek, or just love answering answers with confidence? Join us for 6 rounds of gloriously random trivia, each filled with questions pulled from the obscure corners of the internet with raffles donated by local businesses in between each round! The cost is a donation to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in the amount of your choice through raffles and/or freewill. Teams of 2–6 encouraged (solo? No problem—we’ll help you team up!) Why are we doing this? Because in July, we’re riding 150 miles over two days in the Scenic Shore Bike Tour to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). LLS is leading the fight to cure blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, and myeloma. They fund cutting-edge research, support patients and families, and advocate for access to treatment for all. We’re riding for patients, survivors, loved ones…
