My Story…

In August, I joined a little engine that could as their first ever full time Exec Director: Minds Matter Twin Cities! The organization has seen incredible growth in supporting students from low-income backgrounds on their path to college, and it's been a joy to get to know the amazing volunteers and incredibly focused, ambitious students. Here's how you can fuel our growth:

$50 helps us fund Saturday lunches for high schoolers! Fuel up between ACT prep and mentorship sessions

$100 donations help with dorm set-up for our graduating seniors. Picture all those odds and ends of dorm life and the $$ pricey Target run to set it all up.

$250 helps with summer program travel costs! This summer we're flying students to Boston, Los Angeles, Chapel Hill, and more.

$500 helps us fund bus trips for college visits. There's nothing quite like getting on a campus to help picture yourself there.

Thank you!! For being part of this journey and for being part of a community that cares about students, invests in volunteers, and powers a more equitable future.
