Yesterday, on what would have been Representative Melissa Hortman’s birthday, we honored her with a Day of Service.
Representative Hortman was a strong advocate for people with disabilities in Minnesota, including those served by Rise. In honor of her, we took this opportunity to give back to our community.
Across our life enrichment sites, we spent time volunteering at Feed My Starving Children - C**n Rapids, picking up litter in local parks, helping clean community garden boxes at the New Brighton Community Center, making cards for We Saw The Light, and more.
We are grateful for the impact Rep. Hortman made on Minnesota, and we were proud to honor her through service. 💙
