Introducing Dawn!
Hi everyone!
I’m Dawn, the official mascot of Greater Helena Gives.
The highlight of my day is peeking out over the hills and checking out all the great things happening in Helena—my hometown.
Me and my dog, Orbit, love all the great things Helena has to offer. Scenic trails, strong families, the arts, and a community that cares.
Coloring Book Pages!
The Helena Area Community Foundation and Opportunity Bank of Montana hosted a coloring contest for Greater Helena Gives 2023! The coloring pages feature Dawn, the new Greater Helena Gives mascot, who can be found hiking Mount Helena, riding a horse out in the Helena valley, and enjoying some ice cream on the trolley downtown. Coloring pages can still be downloaded at the link!
