MINI SESSIONS

PAY IT FORWARD 2025 RECAP:

Our inaugural three Pay It Forward mini session dates raised a total of $3,100, all thanks to your generosity. Together, we helped support families and children in need through Second Harvest Heartland, children around the world through Save the Children, and orphan care and coffee-based life-skills programs through The Legacy Refuge. Your kindness helped make a real impact both locally and globally, and I’m so grateful to everyone who participated!

Second Harvest Heartland is a leading hunger-relief organization serving Minnesota and Western Wiscosin. They partner with hundreds of food shelves and programs to distribute millions of meals each year, working towards ending hunger in our region.

For over 100 years, Save the Children has been dedicated to giving every child a healthy start, access to education, and protection from harm, both in the U.S. and around the world. Every day, they respond to emergencies around the world, and work to support children's rights and safety.

The Legacy Refuge is a nonprofit dedicated to helping orphans and vulnerable children heal from trauma, be adopted when possible, and live healthy productive lives. Through life-skills and coffee training (teaching barista and roasting skills), they create pathways for independence, confidence, and sustainable futures.
