Community Voices: Our Continued Support, June 2022

As part of our continued efforts to support our community and our commitment to be better allies, we’re proud to lend our platform each week to individuals seeking change. Every week we welcome a new guest on our Instagram to help us speak to important issues affecting the community, and profile a charitable organization of their choosing that is making an impact. Over 100 episodes in, and we’re thrilled to continue to ensure that our actions speak Louder Than Words.

Below are some of the amazing guests who joined us in June 2022:

Episode 102: Chet Holmgren

We were excited to welcome @chet_holmgren, top 5 NBA Draft prospect. We chatted about the effects of social injustice in the Minneapolis area, Draft Night 2022, and the work Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities is doing.
