Bloomington Early Learning Advisory Council

10/05/2026

Join us TONIGHT! Our first Dine to Donate fundraiser of the year is happening tonight from 5-8pm at Culver’s in Bloomington (7801 Nicollet Ave). Let Culver's do the cooking and you will be supporting BELAC!

💵 10% of all money made from Culver’s orders at the Bloomington location (dine in, take out, or drive thru) during the fundraiser time frame will help fund BELAC and our school community.

As a reminder, there are no exits to Nicollet Ave from 494 E or 494 W. Use your phone’s Maps app to get you to 7801 Nicollet Ave. 📍

If you can't make it tonight, you can always donate to BELAC on our website: https://www.bloomingtonearlyadvisors.org/donate.

A neat way to connect with folks in our community! All are welcome 🥰

This week, attend a Public Living Room to take a break and connect with others in a welcoming, agenda-free space where everyone belongs. Public Living Rooms are simple places to relax, have a conversation or just enjoy being around other people. There are no expectations, no pressure and everyone is welcome. No registration is needed.

Valentina’s Michoacana (Mexican flavor ice-cream shop)
9040 Lyndale Ave 📍
Wednesday, August 12, 10 a.m.–12 p.m. 📅

Cedarcrest Park splash pad area
8700 Bloomington Ave. 📍
Thursday, August 13, 4–6 p.m. 📅

We ask everyone to help create this welcoming environment by embracing six simple ideas:

- It’s okay to be a bit rubbish.
- Don’t fix people, just be alongside them.
- To be silly is to be human.
- Mix with folks not like you.
- We can disagree respectfully.
- Ask someone who is struggling to help you.
