My Story…

Back again and bigger than before - it’s Grandma’s 50th annual race weekend! 

This year I am partnering again with Union Gospel Mission of Duluth, in hopes to raise even more money than last year. 

Every day, Union Gospel Mission opens its doors to people in need — connecting them with resources, offering hot meals, warm clothing, and a place to feel seen and cared for. For many in our community, this mission is a lifeline.

This is my 4th time participating in the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon, and I am PROUD to sponsor UGM and all they do for the community. 


“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.”
— Desmond Tutu




Description

Union Gospel Mission is a non-profit located in downtown Duluth that aims to provide food, shelter, and hope to neighbors in the Northland.
