We support various projects and events throughout the Twin Cities that have a positive impact on our youth. We partner with numerous organizations, schools, and community leaders to organize reading events, playground projects, fundraisers, and other activities. We are always interested in new partnerships.
We support other Minnesota based, non-profit organizations who share in our mission and values. The support we give ranges from providing auction items for fundraisers to giving grants straight to those non-profits to help them in achieving their goals. Applications are submitted and reviewed quarterly.
We are passionate about helping our local youth around the Twin Cities accomplish their goals and dreams. We award grants to individuals under the age of 19 who are Minnesota residents with goals that align with our mission and values. Applications are submitted and reviewed by our Youth Foundation board on a quarterly basis.
Below are a few of our most recent projects, programs, organizations, and individuals we have supported. We receive hundreds of applications each year from non-profits and individuals located in the Twin Cities and surrounding communities.
