Ramadan Mubarak! Gwen and I are wishing a safe, peaceful, and blessed Ramadan to all Minnesotans celebrating. It’s hard to imagine holidays without our cherished traditions, but I know Minnesotans will find new ways to come together and honor their faith.

@AFPMN Outstanding Professional Fundraiser honoree is Frank Molek of the U of M's Landscape Arboretum. Many don't realize almost everything there is done through private #philanthropy. We had a stunning autumn day for our video shoot.
