Happy birthday to our coffee-guzzling, oatmeal raisin cookie-loving, gotta-have-vegetables-at-breakfast eating, always jet-setting leader, Rose!

Learn more about Rose in her This or That picks!

This year, Rose's birthday donation will support civil rights organization NAACP, which in 2026 continues to staunchly defend Black voting rights — especially in the aftermath of the recent Supreme Court decision in Louisiana vs. Callais that guts landmark protections of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

DUFB makes Michigan stronger.

The program brings more Michigan-grown fruits and vegetables to families using SNAP, more dollars into the pockets of local farmers, and more dollars flowing into our local economies – and ultimately supporting the health and resiliency of Michigan’s communities.

In 2025, SNAP and Double Up Food Bucks Michigan generated $12.4 million in sales of fruits & veggies. Now that’s a big local impact!

When you Double Up, you harvest more than healthy food — you’re growing your community!

Eat Local. Grow Community.

Michigan ❤️s local fruits & veggies!
Last year, more than 190,000 Michigan families used Double Up Food Bucks to bring home more fresh produce. This helped SNAP dollars stay in our local economies. Learn more during : doubleupfoodbucks.org/awareness-month

⚾ These centennial-branded baseballs were a home run!

enjoyed creating these commemorative FLY balls as a promotional item for our friends at Lansing's Capital Region International Airport (LAN) to mark their milestone anniversary at Strikeout Baseball for their grand opening in Lansing on Saturday.

This new, first-of-its-kind mini-stadium is free to use for all skill levels and ages. Its opening unites our community in a unique way, making outdoor fun and America's pastime even more accessible!
