Join us to hear the story of the House of Talents, a Minneapolis-based company whose mission is to alleviate poverty by connecting artisans from developing countries with consumers worldwide. Founder Kate Herzog, a native of Ghana, will share her journey from growing up in Ghana to—many years later—earning an MBA at the University of St. Thomas and starting a company in Minnesota. Baskets by House of Talents artisans will be available for sale, with half of the proceeds going to the Angel Foundation, supporting adults with cancer. MCC members Mary Racciatti and Peggy Lucas co-host. Ghanaian appetizers will be served!
