Make a Donation as an Individual

Financial contributions of any type are needed. Additionally, running two households for up to twelve teenagers requires a wide assortment of goods in kind such as:

• furniture

• kitchen items

• linen

• misc (frequent flyer miles, sports equipment, tickets to area events, etc.)

We also appreciate the gift of your time as a volunteer.

Make a Donation as a Business

We rely on businesses to provide financial support along with goods and services (including repair and maintenance assistance). Two key mechanisms for contributing financially are through a grant or our corporate Building Blocks giving program. (See below) Businesses who wish to make a financial contribution and receive recognition may do so either through corporate sponsorships at our golf tournament or Fall Gala dinner. Corporate donors will be recognized on this Web site. (See below)

Business Block Community Program

The Edina ABC Business Blocks Community program is a simple way to let small businesses in Minneapolis and surrounding suburbs contribute to the ABC program. Donor businesses pledge $50-100 a month over the course of the year. The annual contribution from ten businesses – a single “Building Block” - pays for the cost of one student in the program. The Building Blocks program is a painless way for a local business to show their support for education, diversity, and the community.

How can your business participate?

Please contact us either by phone or mail and provide your name, business name, and a convenient way to reach you. We will send you a pledge form with the information you’ll need.
