Gut wrenching video, memories and history. It’s hard to watch without tears flooding down your face.

So thankful to know our community is already fighting the next big flood with permanent protection.

I'm so proud of my coworker, Libby, for opening up and sharing her personal story of endometriosis.

A shocking 1 in 10 women have endometriosis, yet so many are misdiagnosed, not diagnosed at all, or spend an average of eight years searching for a proper diagnosis.

I’m so proud to be an alumna of the University of North Dakota. Thanks to the UND Communication Department for featuring my career! 💚 🖤 🤍 💖 (yes, prairie rose pink is an official school color!)

Meet this week’s Alumni Spotlight, Amy Norstedt from Hallock, MN. She graduated from UND in the spring of 2011 with a Bachelor’s in Communication, focusing on broadcast journalism and public relations. Amy is currently the Public Relations Strategist at Flint Group in Fargo, ND. As part of her role at Flint Group, she serves as the public information officer for the developer of the Fargo-Moorhead Area Diversion channel project.

Who are you giving to this Giving Hearts Day? Please consider donating to KIDSon Cares. It's a program back in my home county that helps fill needs so all kids have the opportunity to do the things they love. ❤

This is a really special cause for me. If it was around when I was younger, I would have benefitted from this program. I dropped out of volleyball and basketball, and I couldn't participate in most other sports or activities, because my family wasn't able to pay for the expensive equipment and sports camps that were required. This program could have prevented that and would have saved me a lot of pain and unfortunate choices through high school... but it's doing just that for a lot of other kids! Thanks for considering a donation!
