Minnetonka Nonprofits and Charities

Great volunteering opportunity! Many different roles you can do, like homecare, senior home visits, and store.

I met the Founders of Blair's Tree of Hope through another organization when their daughter, Blair received a stuffed animal from them. <br>I started doing the decor for their fundraisers and have been with them ever since. They collect items to help the parents of hospitalized children in the form of toiletries and snacks. They also have a group of volunteers that sews pillowcases and IV covers.<br>I have thoroughly enjoyed working with all of the members of the team that comprise Blair's Tree of Hope. In my humble opinion, you can't find a better group to make a donation to. It will be used in the best possible way, helping other people every day!

Make-A-Wish New Mexico is grateful to work with the Car Donation Foundation through the Wheels for Wishes program. Their continued support and dedication to our mission makes it possible for us to grant life-changing wishes for children in New Mexico who are battling critical illnesses. The team is amazing to work with and truly makes a difference to our chapter and our wish families. Thank you.

Relate Counseling Center and it's staff have been a beacon of light during this pandemic. Staff quickly pivoted to telehealth quickly last spring to continue to provide quality mental health services. Staff continue to serve the community offering helpful and energetic webinars for parents, youth and clients. Staff continue to adjust to meet the growing changes of the people they serve. They are always open for consultations or a new referral.

Simply the best charity in Minnesota. They function at a 6% budget and have donated millions to Minnesota's cancer research and community.

We adopted our dog from Secondhand Hounds, and the whole process was very professional and straightforward. We’re now donors and appreciate their transparency and dedication to their mission.

I am a combat wounded vet who received care from pain free Patriots. They far exceeded any expectations that I had coming into it, and I am in a better place because of their help.

A great Non Profit whose mission is to help people of all abilities live a full life. <br>Being a volunteer I have had great learning experience

I just heard this wonderful group yesterday at the Osseo Lion Roar parade. They were WONDERFUL!

Reach and Restore is an amazing organization that supports people in need. The employees and volunteers are very understanding and kind, and go out of their way to help others. This organization does not only provide daily necessities, but also comfort and support. I had such a wonderful experience volunteering here, and can't wait to do it again! It is so heart warming to know how many lives are impacted with the help of the volunteers; every person makes a difference!

It has been a privilege to work with these passionate, dedicated people to help connect searching families to resources, provide support and information to searching families, and provide prevention information to the public. <br> <br>Before I joined the board, I was a volunteer. In that role, I had no idea how small the budget for this energetic and involved organization was! <br> <br>As a board member, I am committed to ensure that every dollar donated is made mighty!

I became involved with the FASGMN (Food Allergy Support Group of Minnesota) after my daughter was diagnosed with multiple food allergies at 1 year. Her allergist recommended this group and I was so glad he did. Although our allergist attempted to discuss areas to increase our knowledge in for care of a child with food allergies, my husband and I really started to become more comfortable with the care we provided once we became members of FASGMN. FASGMN promotes advocacy, and as parents of a child with a disability, this is the area that we discovered needed constant attention in order to assure our daughter's safety. <br> <br>I first became involved in the Buddy program at FASGMN, which helped me begin to understand the varying areas that needed attention, including planning for activities that didn't involve just meals. <br> <br> The FASGMN website provided our family with a wealth of knowlege that promoted advocacy for our child's daycare, our family, and our community. I began to feel more confident in caring for our daughter because of my involvement in FASGMN and then this is when I applied to be a Board member. <br>Since my membership in the board, I have become actively involved in the YES Group, which is a wonderfully supportive group which works to promote relationships amongst children with food allergies. Through this groups activities, the children build bonds over their common personal experiences of dealing with food allergies. For example, the children have had group activities that focused on dealing with food allegies in their school and at their friends' birthday parties. I think this organizations work is invaluable to the food allergy community in Minnesota.

Five years ago I barely knew what this organization did... today I am so proud to be its Executive Director. We are simply "the little engine that could..." we do so much with so little. Our committed Board of Directors really defines a working board as they serve as the staff of the organization alongside myself and just one other staff member -- who together don't even equal full time. Out highlights include: Providing nearly 14,000 Minneapolis public school students with the school supplies they need to start the year off right. Providing over 500 homeless and highly mobile students in Minneapolis with essential supplies to keep them on track and moving forward academically while also attempting to eliminate just a small amount of the constant stress they feel. Providing new books to homeless and highly mobile students who would not otherwise have a book of their own. Recognizing graduating seniors in area high schools for their contributions to world peace and cooperation. Presenting in classrooms statewide on both Israel and Judaism in a way that both engages students and conforms to curriculum guidelines. Provide hundreds of one-on-one tutoring and mentoring hours for students in one Minneapolis school along with providing assistance to staff in other areas. Providing advocacy education opportunities to the community at large related to areas of interest -- the state budget, the supreme court, the life of the ambassador, advances in healthcare, etc. Join, volunteer, donate -- just engage -- we welcome your involvement on whatever level you can offer.
