Nonprofit organization that focuses on lowering the recidivism rate within the Fargo-Moorhead community through helping mentor inmates before and after they are released. With stratigic partnerships, we are able to help provide resources with experience of being in the same shoes at one time. Successful business people who have backgrounds, or may not are leading this charge.

Bogobrush is the toothbrush you can actually care about. It's beautifully designed, ecological, and now born entirely in the USA. And with each Bogobrush sold, another brush is given to someone in need through our give partners.

Emerging Prairie began in 2013 as a digital media company, sharing news about entrepreneurship and founders. Soon after, our four founders realized they had a knack for creating connections and event planning. We launched our region into a new stage of connecting and supporting entrepreneurs through events, programs, and conferences designed to accelerate growth in our area. In 2019, we launched the Grand Farm initiative. Inspired by local entrepreneurs, we were challenged to brainstorm, "What is our state's major?". After months of research, we decided that agriculture technology was the future of our region. We partnered with Microsoft (and dozens of others), and began our venture into the world of agtech. Born from Grand Farm, we saw a need to train software engineers to fill the hundreds of jobs available in our state. We launched Emerging Digital Academy to fulfill that need, with a goal of sending 50 students through our 20-week immersive program each year. We're excited about the future of our region, and are constantly inspired by those that exist within it. Interested in joining us on our mission? Learn more at www.emergingprairie.com.
