Our Give to the Max campaign kicked off on November 1 and continues until Thursday, November 19.

We recently launched a new strategic plan that will guide our work until 2030. As we move into 2027, we're going to create connections by launching a youth advisory board. We'll also establish an annual calendar of group therapy offerings, as well as a regular cycle of youth engagement activities.

It will take $761,000 to fully fund our mission this year (by June 2027), and Give to the Max Day is critical to accomplish this. Please join us to be an anchor for queer and trans youth by supporting RECLAIM for Give to the Max Day by Thursday, November 19. Early giving has already started, so you can make or schedule your gift today at givemn.org/RECLAIM.

Are you passionate about mental health? Want to support queer and trans youth in Minnesota? Do you have professional skills you want to put to work to serve our community? Consider serving on RECLAIM's board or a committee!

Join RECLAIM's board of directors for our last meet and greet to learn about board and committee service, happening this Thursday from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. at RECLAIM's office. Be sure to pre-register for the meet & greet.

You're invited to our fall Volunteer Night at our office on Thursday, November 19 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. We'll be working on our end-of-year fundraising projects. Activities may include preparing mailings, writing postcards, or making phone calls, along with general preparations for our Celebrate the Love gala.

Whether this is your first time volunteering with RECLAIM or you're a seasoned RECLAIMer, we are excited to have you join us. No prior training or orientation is required, but please RSVP to Volunteer Night so we can plan accordingly.

Our annual Celebrate the Love brunch & gala is returning in 2027 on Saturday, February 20 at the McNamara Alumni Center on the University of Minnesota East Bank campus. Tickets sales have opened, with options for a full table of ten, half table of five, or individual tickets.

We are also seeking sponsorships for CTL. See our CTL sponsorship opportunities packet for information about levels, benefits, and the impact of your support.

CTL includes a silent auction of over 100 items for sale. Our silent auction contribution form is open and ready for you to contribute
