For the 7th year, over 800 homeless and displaced guests from area organizations arrived at Rock Bottom – downtown Minneapolis for a Christmas Day celebration, despite the snowy weather!

A Day of Celebration
Each guest received a warm welcome and an extraordinary dining experience. Seated at tables dressed in white linens and napkins, silverware and china, guests enjoyed a traditional meal complete with all the trimmings!

The Growth of Holiday Miracles
The Miracles began on Christmas Day in 1996, when the Denver ChopHouse & Brewery, driven to brighten the day for the area’s hungry and homeless population, served a traditional Christmas Day meal to 250 guests.

What began as a small gesture of kindness has spread across the United States. This holiday season, more than 6,500 children and their families in Boise, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Denver, Indianapolis, Cleveland and Portland received an outpouring of goodwill through our Miracle events.

Further, restaurants in Cincinnati, Seattle, Longmont, and Denver hosted over 2,500 guests at our Thanksgiving Gatherings. To celebrate spring and the end of our season of giving we will also serve 1250 guests a holiday meal with all the trimmings on Easter Sunday in Minneapolis, Omaha, Orland Park, Illinois and Gresham, Oregon.
