Twice the Gift and Open Arms through December 31, 2009:

Buy a meaningful gift, support Open Arms and our South Africa programs. 

Twice the Gift is a unique seasonal shop in downtown Minneapolis that will showcase the products and services of 67 Twin Cities nonprofit organizations, including Open Arms.

At Twice the Gift, Open Arms will offer one-of-a-kind pieces of art handmade by the South African beaders of Monkeybiz and Streetwires.


Twice the Gift IS LOCATED AT:
IDS Crystal Court
Downtown, Minneapolis
next to Cosi's Restaurant

For more information, visit Twice the Gift's website.

The Pohlad Family Foundation generously underwrites Twice the Gift by giving 100% of the proceeds from the sales of these gift items back to the participating Twin Cities nonprofit organizations.




Twice the Gift History
During the fall of 2007, The Pohlad Family Foundation worked with 45 interested Twin Cities nonprofits to sell their products and services during the holiday season. The store, Twice the Gift, operated for 30 days and had sales of more than $70,000. Foundation underwriting support allowed distribution of 100% of sales proceeds to participating nonprofits.

Due to the store’s success, and in response to customer and nonprofit requests, Twice the Gift continues during 2009.




All proceeds from the events benefit Open Arms' programs for people living with HIV/AIDS in South Africa.
