Today is Give to the Max day, a statewide outpouring of support for thousands of nonprofits and schools across Minnesota.

We are also in the midst of our Fall Member Drive and today, for every gift made to MPR, three meals will be donated through our partnership with Second Harvest Heartland.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that embody the spirit of generosity?
