We had a blast hosting a group of brilliant kids from Hospitality House Youth Development at our offices last week! They dove into the world of retail, got a behind-the-scenes look at what we do, and even had the chance to pitch their favorite brands to us. Talk about impressive—these kids are sharp! If you're on the lookout for an amazing non-profit that’s making waves with Minneapolis kids, definitely check out HHYD. We would be thrilled to partner with any organization in supporting their initiatives! 🌟
