Connected Puzzles ND Tour

Connected Puzzles is a statewide initiative aiming to promote geographic literacy across North Dakota. It hopes to instill a sense of awareness, appreciation, and curiosity for North Dakota amoung local youth by distributing over 400 interactive puzzles maps to classrooms across the state. 

Each puzzle consists of 53 pieces that represent the counties of North Dakota. On the back of each piece is a quick response (QR) code that can be scanned to lead to additional online content. 

So far, Connected Puzzles has raised $15,000--enough to distribute about half of the fourth grade classrooms in North Dakota. 

Connected Puzzles is partnering with the Humans of Fargo and First International Bank and Trust to put on the Connect ND Tour. We will be stopping in 7 different cities across North Dakota to share our inititaive and explore the people, places, and communities that truly shape North Dakota. 



In addition, Connected Puzzles will be raising money to distribute 50 additional puzzles. All funds, up to $5,000, will be matched by a generous supporter. 

So follow our journey, support our cause, and learn what connects North Dakota.
