Volunteer Together Events

Beginning in 2019, Do Good Roseville has hosted an occasional group volunteer event as part of our goal to help actively engage more people in our community and build connections to other organizations doing good things in our community. The pandemic really slowed the volunteer opportunities that were available for a few years, but we’re picking back up starting in 2023.

Bundles of Love (May 2023)

Bundles of Love is a volunteer driven nonprofit that partners with community organizations to assist Minnesota families in need by providing handmade items for newborns. https://www.bundlesoflove.org/

Kite Day in the Park (Apr 2023)

Kite Day is an annual event in Roseville Parks with free kites provided by Kiwanis Malt Shop at the Fair.

Biz Town at Junior Achievement (Mar 2023)

Volunteers were paired with students to help them make important business and personal finance decisions in their assigned JA BizTown shop throughout the day. https://www.janorth.org/programs#list

The calm after the storm! Imagine 100 fifth and sixth graders running 20 different businesses! We couldn’t take pictures of the kids, but it was a great day!

MN Tech for Success (Feb 2023)

We recycle and repair donated computers to refurbish them for schools and educationally focused community organizations to impact the full life cycle of technology. https://techforsuccess.org/

We inspected, cleaned and wrapped over 200 donated computer monitors which will now be donated to students!

Kids in Need Foundation (July 2022)

Kids In Need Foundation is the only national nonprofit focusing on the nation’s most under-resourced schools: those where 70 percent or more of the enrolled students are eligible for free or reduced-cost meals through the National School Lunch Program. https://www.kinf.org/

We packed 648 backpacks, worth $16,2000.

Fall School Cleanup (Oct 2020)

For this event, a group got together and cleaned up the grounds around Little Canada Elementary schools.

Fight for Air (Feb 2020)

This event was for the the American Lung Association “Fight For Air Climb”. These stair climbs are held in prominent skyscrapers. We did not climb (!), we supported their efforts by being greeters and passing out food and beverages.kh

Bundles of Love (Sept 2019)

This month we joined forces with Kiwanis Club of North Suburban St. Paul to make Bundles of Love for the Maplewood location. We were are Path of Grace United Methodist Church in Maplewood.y Road B, Maplewood

Check out these great pictures!

Second Harvest Heartland (Aug 2019)

This awesome group packed 8 pallets of food, which was 400 boxes, 12,000 pounds (6 tons!) and will be 10,000 meals for seniors in the MN/WI. Not bad for 2 hours work!

Adoption is Love (May 2019)

Feed My Starving Children (March 2019)

Volunteers hand pack scientifically formulated meals for undernourished children, which are distributed to a network of 80+ partners in 60+ countries each.

We were part of a MobilePack event at Community of Grace Lutheran Church. 520 volunteers, packed 108,000 meals. Enough to feed 3 meals a day, for a full year for 91 kids. It was an amazing operation.

Bundles of Love (Feb 2019)

There was something different for everyone to do, and it takes a lot of pictures to show how much effort goes into making each bundle! If you want, you can even do projects at home. You can choose to sew or knit an entire item, or just do one task such as cutting fabric, drawing patterns, and much, much more. It’s an amazing operation run by all volunteers.

Look at our volunteers sewing, cutting, marking fabric, putting in snaps, packaging shampoo and baby wash, cutting quilts, and assembling bundles:

Do Good Roseville even helped by collecting fabric donations. If you have extra fabric, you can do the same!

Kids In Need Foundation (January 2019)

Look at this amazing group of DRG volunteers at Twin Cities Kids In Need Resource Center! They did a great job packing bags, sorting and boxing supplies and labeling bags for math kits.

CKINRC is an amazing organization that distributed just short of $1,500,000 in school supplies to teachers last year, and impacted 98,000 students!!! They have lots of other volunteer activities available. If you know a teacher in a school where 70% or more of the students are on Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program, the teachers can ‘shop’ for free
