Description of the Twin Cities Branch

The Twin Cities Branch is an honor branch hosting various community service events in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul areas of Minnesota.  Volunteer work centers around the theme of “giving hope,” which is achieved through volunteering with and fundraising for various organizations. Twin Cities Branch is heavily involved in fighting hunger, as we frequently fundraise for and volunteer with Feed My Starving Children (a food packing facility), ICA (a local food shelf), and Second Harvest (a food bank). However, we also work to sustain the environment through trash cleanups, care for seniors through performances and crafts events, and support other cultural and social events which involve many nonprofits organizations or charities like Opportunity Partners, Special Olympics in MN, Asian Fair, Taste of Asia, Twin Cities Marathon, other organizations from local cities and communities.
