We are thrilled to share that our longtime partners at Allina Health recently released a heartwarming video (check it out via the link below) showcasing the group volunteer efforts of their pharmacy team at our Minneapolis kitchen. Group volunteering, like what we see with Allina Health, is more than just a collective effort—it’s a powerful way to foster teamwork and make an impact on the community. When groups come together to volunteer, they bring lots of energy and enthusiasm, creating a ripple effect that extends beyond the kitchen. Please reach out to Emily Essert at [email protected] if your team is interested doing something similar at either of our locations. https://lnkd.in/gZamnbSb

Open Arms of Minnesota reposted this
We are incredibly proud of our team for coming together at Open Arms to make a difference in the lives of critically ill Minnesotans. Together, we packed nearly 750 meals, providing nourishing food and a little extra care to those who need it most. Service is a core value of Thomas Allen, and this event is a great reminder of the impact we can have when we work together. Thank you to everyone who participated, and to Open Arms of Minnesota for the important work they do every day! #volunteerevent #givingback #teamwork #humanservices

🎉 Our annual volunteer appreciation event, TOAST!, was simply mint last night! 🌿 Over 300 volunteers and their families gathered at the St. Paul Kitchen and Campus for an evening filled with laughter, games, prizes, and amazing food. This year's theme, “Herb-a-licious Extravaganza: One Bite at a Thyme,” saw Open Arms staff divided into six teams, each tasked with creating the perfect one-bite treat featuring an herb grown at our five urban farms. When the votes were tallied, the Over-aCHIVErs took home Best Dish with their Chivey Patty Delight Crab Cake, and Basil Bella claimed the top spot for Best Decor! A huge thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us—you are the heart and soul of Open Arms and make our community truly special. ❤️ Stay tuned for the full photo gallery from the evening's festivities!
