It’s Give To The Max Day! It’s a day when Minnesotans come together to help raise money in support of nonprofits and schools across the state.

As we Give to the Max, let’s brainstorm a playlist of songs that encourage crossing a finish line or going the distance. Let’s take it to the max with music!

So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs about pushing things to the limit would you like to hear?

As you think about what nonprofit organizations to support on Give to the Max Day, we hope you keep this public radio station in mind. You can support music discovery and a thriving Minnesota music scene by becoming a member of The Current.
