Midis for Minnesota is still going, and they’ve just passed the halfway mark of their $10,000 fundraising goal! Donate any amount to a Minnesota mutual aid organization, submit proof, and you’ll receive a pack of 13 midi crosswords from Minnesotan constructors. Through tomorrow, Sunday, May 3, donations are being matched AND you can receive a limited-edition physical booklet by mail (while supplies last), so if you’ve been on the fence, today’s the day.
