EVENTS

Join us as we collect food items to Pack the Backpack. United Way’s Backpack Program fights to end childhood hunger by providing food in students’ backpacks to feed them for the weekend.

Join your neighbors in a trike race against poverty. We invite you to form teams of four to compete in this relay event. It will be a fantastic day of competition, costumes, and food. ​Last year was a photo finish, and this year we will have more teams than ever fighting for the coveted title of Trike Wars champions. Prizes will be given to the fastest and best dressed teams. ​​Come ready to compete and win against poverty!​​

The longest-running charity event in the country, Giving Hearts Day is a 24-hour event for charities in North Dakota and Minnesota. Join us on February 8th, 2024, and give where you live! This year be a giving heart that's helping to build bright futures for local children and families in need. Your generosity prioritizes finding stable housing for families experiencing homelessness, fights childhood hunger, and provides children and families with the basic necessities they need to thrive.

Join us for a night of fun at the MGM Grand Forks. Delicious hors d'oeuvres, drinks and dancing will accompany a wide variety of Vegas-style gaming such as Blackjack, Poker, and more.
