Julie Leikvoll — 2025 Changemakers Finalist

Congratulations to one of our 2025 Changemakers finalists, Julie Leikvoll from Little Falls!

In the midst of the pandemic in 2020, Julie Leikvoll left her job to help give back to others when she started Labor of Love MN in Little Falls. Through Labor of Love, Leikvoll created a space where antique shoppers, thrift shoppers and people in need can come for clothes, essentials and much more. Labor of Love collects items through donations, which Leikvoll turns around to offer for free or at a reduced price for those in need - and sometimes takes on the cost of items herself to help someone else. Over the last five-plus years, Leikvoll and Labor of Love has helped more than 1,000 individuals and families by giving back and supporting them in any way she can.
