We live amongst wildlife everywhere we turn, even in our urban settings. Whether an injured baby rabbit or a bird with an injured wing, these animals deserve our protection and care.

Ruff Start Rescue
We can’t say enough great things about Ruff Start Rescue! They are an organized operation, run by caring professionals who tirelessly put the needs of un-homed animals before their own. They also happen to be where we found our beautiful puppies, Nina and Joey.
If you are considering bringing an animal into your family, please foster or adopt. Ruff Start is, indeed, the place to start.

The construction workforce is at a critical low. Jobs are in high demand with few workers to fill them.
Summit Academy OIC provides vital pre-apprenticeship training for folks entering the workforce, and they provide it free of charge. Students at Summit come from all diverse backgrounds and with inspirational goals for their futures.
Speaking with students during their training is one of the most rewarding and soul-filling opportunities our Owner has the privilege to do.

Better Futures Minnesota
Training for construction workers is a vital need, as is providing support and training for those dedicated to improving their situation.
The men who enter this program receive training, certifications, and support by way of Deconstruction services for the Twin Cities remodeling industry. Materials removed during deconstruction are then recycled or sold at the Reuse Center in Minneapolis.
We support and promote Better Futures MN for the socioeconomical impact they are providing and for the environmental strides they are taking to reduce waste in the remodeling industry.
