Dear John, 

I’m thrilled to invite you to join me and the Fresh Energy team for our 9th Annual Benefit Breakfast — Hope in Action: Driving change for climate solutions — at the Saint Paul RiverCentre on October 9. 

Will you join us to explore current climate momentum, the challenges ahead, and how we can build a brighter future together? 

This year, we’re honored to welcome policy expert, marine biologist, and writer Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson for an inspiring conversation on how imagining a positive climate future can guide our work today. 

Dr. Ayana’s forthcoming book grapples with some of the big “What if...?” questions in urgent climate policy, challenging us to consider the ultimate question: What if we get it right? With Minnesota’s recent climate victories — from reducing energy use in buildings to new clean energy permitting laws — this discussion comes at the perfect time.  

Plus, we’ll also be debuting Fresh Energy’s bold new strategic framework — our plan to advance swift, equitable decarbonization in Minnesota and beyond. 

You won’t want to miss this dynamic morning celebrating our climate wins and preparing for the work still ahead. 

Hurry! Register today to save your seat (and breakfast plate!) for this impactful event. Registration is required; please RSVP by September 25. There is a minimum suggested donation of $125. Can’t attend in person? Don’t worry, you can still join us virtually by registering for a ticket for the online event. 

This event is open to everyone. Please help us by forwarding this invitation to family, friends, and colleagues and invite them to join you. 

I’m looking forward to sharing this transformative morning with you. 

Thank you for your support, 

Dr. Brenda Cassellius
Executive Director
