FREE COMMUNITY EVENT

Discover the many ways you can make a difference in our community at the third annual Nonprofit Volunteer & Information Fair, hosted by Greater Mankato Growth!

This free community event brings together dozens of local GMG member nonprofit organizations, offering a unique opportunity to learn about the important work being done throughout the Greater Mankato area and how you can get involved. Whether you’re looking to volunteer, serve on a board, support a cause, or simply learn more about community resources, you’ll find organizations that match your interests, skills, and availability.

The fair is also an excellent opportunity for local businesses and employers to connect with nonprofit organizations. Companies interested in employee volunteer programs, community partnerships, or making the most of volunteer time-off benefits can explore meaningful ways to engage their teams while supporting causes that strengthen our region.

Attendees will have the chance to meet nonprofit representatives, ask questions, discover volunteer opportunities, and learn about services and programs that impact our community every day.

Admission is free, and all community members, employees, business leaders, students, families, and retirees are encouraged to attend. No registration required.

Join us to connect, learn, and find your place in making Greater Mankato an even stronger community.
