This year, we are excited to host our 18th Annual Gala, in-person at The Depot, Minneapolis and virtually, to engage attendees from near and far. Our casual and theme-based event will be grooving this year as we 'Come Together (Right Now for MICC)' in celebration of our new Social Engagement Program and the successes of our incredible participants.
You're invited to travel with us back to the 1960s and 1970s for a memorable, mission-filled night!
Funds raised from the Gala supports growth, improvement and program innovation. This year, MICC launched a new Social Program to broaden opportunities for College and Community participants, provide a more person-centered program and strengthen mentorship opportunities.
Please contact Trina Sletto, MICC’s Development Manager, at tsletto@miccommunity.org with any questions.
