(KSTP) – It’s the season of giving, and all year, we’ve met those who’ve gone above and beyond.

From Virginie Cogan in Northfield starting “Friends of College Monfant” to raise money for girls in need in her home country of Togo, to the owner of Dudley’s Pizza and Sandwich Shop in Cannon Falls holding a fundraiser for a man he never met, some Minnesotan’s went out of there way to help others in need.
