2026 Campaign Co-Chairs Announced

molly-nikkiUnited Way Bemidji Area is proud to introduce Molly Miller and Nikki Brink as co-chairs of the 2026 United Way Campaign for the Community. Molly and her husband Jeff carry on her family's legacy through Patterson's, and Nikki and her husband Bob own Little Caesars and recently purchased Cool Threads.

"Growing up in Bemidji, we both learned what it means to be part of a community that shows up for one another. Which is why we choose to raise our families here, continuing the same roots our parents built as local business owners. We’re honored to serve as co-chairs and invite you to join us in supporting this year’s campaign."

The 2026 campaign kicks off on September 16, 2026, and will support local programs that help neighbors across our community access the resources they need to thrive. Every gift, no matter the size, stays local and makes a direct impact.

To get involved or learn how you can support this year's campaign, contact the United Way office at 218-444-8929.
