On the Street - June 29, 2012

• Bremer Bank teamed up with Minnapolis-based music and dance ensemble Rhythmic Circus to produce “Step Up!” a music video to raise funds to help end hunger.

Bremer will donate $1 to Second Harvest Heartland and local Feeding American food banks in Minnesota, Wisconsin and North Dakota for each viewing of the video, up to 15,000 views. The video can be found on youtube.com/bremerbanks.

The video is a feature of Bremer’s seventh annual Taking Action to End Hunger campaign. During the month of June, Bremer will match all donations dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000. Donations are accepted at bremer.com or at any Bremer Bank location.

Bremer Financial Corporation is a privately held, $8 billion regional financial services company jointly owned by its employees and the Otto Bremer Foundation. Founded in 1943, the company provides a comprehensive range of banking, investment, trust and insurance services in Minnesota.

• During the month of June, the Alexandria Motor Company will make a $10 donation to Relay for Life for every set of tires or car that is purchased.

They are also providing luminaria bags to honor people who have been touched by cancer. These bags will line the showroom until they are brought to the Relay for Life event in Alexandria. The bags will all be lit during the Luminaria Ceremony. Stop in and honor a loved one with a luminaria.

Relay for Life is a life-changing event that helps communities across the globe celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost and fight back against the disease.
