About Our Auction
For over a decade, Doing Good Together has focused on empowering families to raise caring, engaged children here in Minneapolis - as well as around the nation - by providing innovative activities, resources, and support to help make empathy and "giving back" a natural part of life's early lessons, setting the stage for compassionate, ethical characteristics in our future leaders.
The annual gala, online auction and silent auction is critical to raising the funds and to grow the awareness that enables us to do even more good, together.
About Doing Good Together
Doing Good Together weaves kindness, service and social action into the fabric of families’ lives to strengthen family bonds, bring communities together -- and inspire kids to care for others and for the common good. DGT provides hands-on tools for parents, and also teaches organizations (schools, faith groups, social service agencies and others) how to better empower their member families to make a difference in their communities. We believe passionately that when a family unites to help others, the result is a future generation that is compassionate, aware of social issues, and poised to contribute throughout their lives.
