Announcing our 2023 Campaign Institute cohort of 32 nonprofits

We recently kicked off the 2023 Campaign Institute! One of the largest programs of our RaiseMN initiative, we'll be working with 32 nonprofits across Greater Minnesota and the Twin Cities East Metro to help them level up their fundraising programs and infrastructure. The Campaign Institute is a yearly program supported by Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation and F. R. Bigelow Foundation. Learn more about the cohort.

 

GiveMN recognized with a Community Impact Award

In May, our team was honored to accept a Community Impact Award from Twin Cities Business, recognizing our work during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. From offering emergency no-cost coaching sessions to rebating our portion of the processing fee for three months, building the May 2020 GiveAtHomeMN campaign and a record-breaking Give to the Max, we are humbled by the recognition of our efforts to support help connect nonprofits with the support of generous Minnesotans like you during a tough and uncertain year.
