February was a big month for us!
We are donating a portion of sales to Page Education Foundation, a local non-profit that serves Minnesota’s most underserved Students of Color. In terms of academic opportunities, employment, income, health, and prosperity, Minnesota has been shown to have enormous racial disparities and ranks one of the highest in the Nation. Head to PAGE-ED.ORG to see the many ways this org supports our state’s Black, Native, and students-of-Color including classroom and afterschool support engaging role models that mirror the diverse range of these at-risk students.
