Give Back to those in need and get a NEW Larks bento box in return.
In 2025, the Larks and Knife River teamed up to support Carrie’s Kids as students are preparing to go back to school. The Backpack Give Back partnership raised $3,000 and provided 150 backpacks with school supplies to children who are homeless, or at risk, in the community! In 2026, we’re aiming higher. Come to the ballpark on July 18 to make a difference this school year!
