Make In-Person Debate Great- Support MNUDL This Give to the Max Day!
Fund Pizza Parties & Load the Bus
The Minnesota Urban Debate League is a program of Augsburg University. We provide academic competitive debate programming to more than 1,000 Twin Cities middle and high school students.
In-person programming is so important to support students’ mental health and their ability to connect with others. It’s worth it- but we expect costs to grow in the next year. Food costs have increased, and transportation already costs 3x what it did in 2019. That’s why our goal is to raise $50,000 before 2022 begins!
Join the great Minnesota day of giving by showing your support to debate!
