About 2021 DinoMights Shoot-A-Thon
TEAM FUNDRAISING EVENT, NOW THROUGH 12/21/21
The 2021 DinoMights Shoot-A-Thon! is a team fundraising event. We all know that Minnesota Hockey kids LOVE hockey, and so we are planning to share our love of the game with DinoMights!
Funds generated during the event go to benefit DinoMights general operating costs, the cost to purchase New, Safe, Fitting Helmets for all DinoMights Mites through PeeWee/U12, and Finally, if the campaign meets its goal of $100,000, DinoMights will be able to get a new van. Transportation is a key element of eliminating boundaries to youth hockey participation.
DinoMights provides whole life youth development including hockey to youth in Minneapolis and St. Paul. DinoMights high school graduation rate is 86%, higher than both the Minneapolis Schools rate, and the overall rate for Minnesota schools. And so, help make this the BEST year ever for DinoMights.

About the Cause
The philosophy of DinoMights centers around connecting with youth from their early elementary years through high school graduation, and providing them with the support they need to become self-assured, competent adults.
Using hockey as an incentive, DinoMights provides academic tutoring, mentoring, computer instruction, studies, camping, community service, and various optional activities that help fulfill the mission to develop physical, academic, social and spiritual excellence. Since 1995, the philosophy of DinoMights has focused on whole life impact and long-term relationships with diverse youth possessing significant unmet needs in the Central, Powderhorn Park, and Phillips neighborhoods of South Minneapolis and St. Paul's west side.
Our innovative approach engages students through the power of community and provides them with the opportunities they need to become self-assured, competent adults. DinoMights provides a powerful combination of traditional enrichment through recreation and intentional strategies that respond to children’s unique developmental and academic needs.
