Giving Tuesday, observed on December 3rd, is a global movement that harnesses the power of generosity to kick off the holiday season. As a response to the consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday encourages individuals, businesses, and communities to come together and support charitable causes. On this day, people around the world are inspired to make donations, volunteer their time, or advocate for the issues that matter most to them, fostering a spirit of compassion and philanthropy.

Building Awareness, Appreciation & Support for our Library
The Minnesota Streetcar Museum is an all-volunteer 501c(3) organization which relies on your donations to preserve, maintain, and operate Minnesota’s historic streetcars as well as to share the history of this fascinating system and it’s effects on the state. We appreciate all donations!
The Minnesota Streetcar Museum began service 52 years ago at Lake Harriet and then in Excelsior in 1998. We achieved these milestones because of the generosity of our members and friends.
We all have a story about how music changed our life. So we don't think there should be financial barriers to learning how to play music.
We've seen first hand how music lessons change, shape, and inspire our students. Our lessons are more than just learning music -- they're a place for our students, of all ages, to find a little joy and peace. Our goal is to provide free lessons and start-up supplies to anyone who wants them.
This year, we're raising funds to cover 10 music lesson scholarships, which includes a year's worth of 30-minute lessons from our experienced instructors, along with gear and supplies for the year. These community-funded scholarships will be 100% free for the student, with no requirements to apply or nominate.
At Camp Fire Minnesota, young people bond through shared experiences, creating a trove of memories and a network of life-long friendships. We disconnect from technology, providing space to build authentic connections with each other and the natural world.

At Camp Fire, we encourage young people to discover their own strength and resilience by building confidence in themselves, their peers, and their mentors.
