Haven Watch Minnesota was formed after witnessing firsthand what happens when people are released from ICE detention centers in Minnesota, often traumatized, without phones, IDs, transportation, or even proper clothing in extreme cold. What began as providing emergency support like phones, coats, and rides has quickly grown into something much larger.Mark and I value the work that communities are doing at the local level to protect their most vulnerable members.

Fort Collins/Larimer County's local food back has been fighting hunger in our community since 1984. They provide no-cost shopping locations, diapers, monthly food boxes for seniors, and more to more than 54,000 neighbors in need each year — with 94% of donated resources going directly to hunger-relief programs.

Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara has been empowering girls ages 5–18 in the Santa Barbara community since 1958. Through after-school programs, summer camps, STEM education, gymnastics, and teen leadership development, they inspire girls to be strong, smart, and bold. This organization is especially close to our hearts — Sawyer and Brit attended their programs, and Mark is proud to serve on the board. We have much to be thankful for in all that they provide to the community.

Brennan Center for Justice is a nonpartisan law and policy organization that fights to protect voting rights, defend the Constitution, and ensure equal justice for all Americans. At a time when democracy itself feels fragile, we believe their work has never been more urgent or important.
