Lend a Hand Up Expanding Ways To Raise Money Amid Greater Need
There are several ways to help out people in need through Lend a Hand Up
The Lend a Hand Up organization says they’re seeing more need than ever to help people battling injuries and illness.
They’re hosting multiple online and in-person benefits, including for Holly Siverling, a Fargo woman battling Stage 4 breast cancer, and Sam Hardesty, a National Guardsman who lost a leg in a workplace accident this summer.
If you want to help support the entire organization’s mission, there’s a spikeball tournament fundraiser this Saturday on Lake Melissa near Detroit Lakes.
The in-person benefits are vital to the success of Lend a Hand Up, but new challenges over the last year have led them to rely on other ways to raise money as well.
Jeana Peinovich with Lend a Hand Up says, “Well the need has grown. They way we help people has changed a little bit. We are having more online fundraisers. Some people still love having that in-person event and we encourage them if they want to do that, but we also encourage them to have some online options, the online auction.”
