Keweenaw Gives
A celebration of generosity, connection, and community.
November 4, 2026 | 5:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Rozsa Center for the Performing Arts — Houghton, MI
Keweenaw Gives is the Keweenaw Community Foundation’s annual gathering celebrating the people and generosity that keep our community moving forward.
Join us for an evening of connection and celebration as we recognize the many ways people come together to make a difference across the Keweenaw.
Generosity is Part of Who We Are
There is something special about the Keweenaw. It’s a place where people show up for one another, give back, share their time and talents, and work together to make our community stronger.
Keweenaw Gives was created to celebrate that spirit.
More than an annual fundraiser, it’s an opportunity to gather, connect, and celebrate what we can accomplish together.
Proceeds support KCF’s work connecting people, resources, and ideas through giving, granting, and collaborating — helping turn generosity into lasting local impact.
An Evening to Come Together
Whether you’re attending for the first time or have supported KCF for years, Keweenaw Gives is a chance to connect with people from across the community and celebrate what we can accomplish together.

Dinner

Keweenaw Gives is for everyone who believes in the power of community.
