The campaign is an annual fundraiser organized by the Minnesota Credit Unions for Kids program to benefit Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare. It encourages members, community residents and area businesses to contribute by purchasing paper hearts and links. During the campaign, which runs from January 6th through February 29th, hearts and links are personalized and added to the chain. There are suggested prices for each size of heart or chain link, but a monetary donation of any size is welcome.
