Because living in Minnesota rules, we give back to our community with Surly Gives A Damn (SGAD). We contribute to the fine organizations that are making the North a better place to live through charitable donations, partnerships, and volunteer events. Our volunteers are a really active, passionate bunch and man do they give a damn.

Come be part of the 2023 Surly Gives A Damn Polar Plunge Team to support Special Olympics!
You won’t find a more fun way to support a great organization than jumping in a cold, cold lake with a bunch of beer loving friends. We will be jumping on Friday, March 3 during the Corporate Happy Hour and the location is moving to Lake Nokomis!
If you are scared, we are here for you. If you think it will be too cold, it will be, but it’s worth it. If you think we should have a beer when we are done, you are damn right we will. And we will do it all together.
Come join us and do some good (and have some fun).

Fine Print: If there are opportunities to volunteer at special events, you need to first put in some time. (Simply sign up and complete an SGAD event first and that will get you on the “inside scoop list”.)
