Twin Cities Geek Holiday Toy & Book Drive

From 2015 through 2023, Twin Cities Geek organized an annual Holiday Toy & Book Drive to benefit individuals and families in need. Through the holiday drive, the geek community has raised thousands of toys and books for distribution through worthy local organizations.

We’re proud to report that since our inaugural drive, we have grown this yearly effort significantly in both the number of participating locations and the number of donations collected:

The holiday drive is currently in hiatus while we restructure some things, but it will be back. Want to be learn more or get involved with the Twin Cities Geek Holiday Toy & Book Drive? Visit our dedicated Holiday Drive page!

Supporting the Arts

In 2017, Twin Cities Geek rallied the local geek community to sponsor Lao American poet and playwright Saymoukda Vongsay as a fan-featured guest at CONvergence, the largest science-fiction and fantasy convention in the Upper Midwest.

Internships

In 2019, Twin Cities Geek launched a writing and editing internship program for those looking for direct training, mentorship, and/or school credit as part of their contributions to the site and those who are only interested in being involved with us for a limited time. Internship applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Find more information about becoming an intern on our Become a Contributor page.
