Help for Happiness
Since its founding in 2013, Bakken BBQ has donated over $900,000 to local families and charitable organizations. The co-founders, Jackie Jenkin and Tiffany Steiner, along with the 15 committee members, have grown Bakken BBQ into a significant nonprofit organization that positively impacts the Dickinson community and beyond.
Start of Bakken BBQ
In 2013, Jackie and Tiffany came up with the idea to host a charity event to raise funds for Relay For Life. In just six weeks, the inaugural Bakken BBQ was organized and raised $40,000. The community’s enthusiastic response made it clear that the event was destined to continue.
