Give to the Max Day 2022

Thank you for visiting the Northern Lights Foundation's 

2022 Give to the Max campaign! 

This year we have a goal to raise $5,000 to issue grants to multiple families.

Over the past decade, the foundation has raised more than $450,000 and made grants to more than 200 Northland families with children facing life-threatening illnesses. Most of the children we serve have been diagnosed with heart issues, blood disorders or cancer.  

Northern Lights Foundation Story

After the loss of his infant daughter, Ken Larson, DDS, began volunteering his time with several national children’s charities in an effort to give back to other families and children in need. In 2006, he founded a local charity in Duluth, Minnesota with the mission of providing financial support to families with children who have life-threatening illnesses.

He chose the name Northern Lights Foundation (NLF) for this new non-profit organization because his vision was to bring some much needed light into the lives of children and families who were experiencing a dark time.

Past Grant Recipient, Amelia.
