Minnesota Twins & Families Fill Birthday Bags

Minnesota Twins players, wives and families gathered following their game on Saturday, May 17 at Target Field to assemble 350 toy-filled birthday bags for Cheerful Givers.  This event was part of the Twins fourth annual Hope Week, an entire week dedicated to giving back to the community. During each day of Hope Week, different Twins players lead groups of teammates in participating in various volunteer activities.

Cheerful Givers is a local nonprofit organization that provides birthday gifts for less fortunate parents to be able to recognize their child's birthday.  The organization is celebrating 20 years of giving to more than 800,000 disadvantaged children in Minnesota.  For more information or to donate, visit www.cheerfulgivers.org.
