About 363: Make a Difference
Each year, various organizations put together programs for Thanksgiving and Christmas to help feed, clothe and take care of those less fortunate. There is a remarkable amount of time, energy and money that goes into these programs. An honest question, pondered by those who participate is; what happens the other 363 days of the year?
363 was established with the other days in mind. Our starting goal was to help feed 150 homeless people in Minneapolis as many times a year as possible, with the ultimate goal of doing it everyday of the year. Today, we are feeding about 2,000 people per day!
Mr. Allan Law is the inspiration behind 363 Days. While teaching in the Public Schools, Mr. Law identified a need for children of broken families. Those children often were without an outlet to activities that most children take for granted. For 30+ years, Mr. Law could be spotted at the local McDonald’s, movie theaters, Valleyfair, and Lake Minnetonka with large groups of children. A non-profit called Minneapolis Recreation Development (MRD) was formed to ease the financial burden of his cause. Today, MRD assists children and families in the twin cities area in many ways, from helping pay a doctor bill to purchasing blankets or school supplies. 363 Days is the food program within MRD with the sole purpose of helping Mr. Law and his mission to feed others in the Twin Cities.

Have you ever wondered how you could make a difference in the world, but perhaps don’t have as much time as you’d like? An act of kindness need not be a huge one to make a difference. We have a way you can help with just a small amount of time and a small amount of money that will make a big difference.
