Your gift provides Minnesotans with housing
As the year draws to a close, our thoughts naturally turn to the changing seasons, upcoming celebrations, and promise of a fresh start. Yet, amid the flurry of activity and obligations, we often neglect to pause and reflect on the year that has passed.
As Housing First Minnesota Foundation looks ahead to the new year, we have much to be thankful for and reflect on from the past year.
Housing First Minnesota Foundation’s mission is to partner to build safe housing for Minnesotans in need, with a vision to provide dignified housing in the pursuit of ending homelessness.
2024 was a year of growth for the Foundation. We expanded the Housing for Heroes program, completing three additional homes in the Twin Cities for veterans and families experiencing homelessness. This brings the total number of Housing for Heroes homes to 15, each of which can accommodate up to eight veterans and their family members annually. The Foundation is also in the early planning stages for new building initiatives to support homeless youth in the Southwest Metro and single mothers with children in the North Metro. And, we are moving closer to seeing our Veteran Village become a reality.
As we continue to grow, our partnerships are more important than ever. We are incredibly grateful for all our nonprofit and builder partners who donate their time, energy, and resources to bring these projects to life. With these key partnerships, we will continue to expand our reach and make an impact on homelessness in Minnesota.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, friends, partners, and individual donors, we can provide housing solutions for veterans, single parents, youth, and others experiencing homelessness in our state. As we embark on new projects to help our neighbors and community, we are asking you to consider the Housing First Minnesota Foundation in your end-of-year giving so we may continue this important and impactful work, together.
Whether you plan to give on Give to the Max Day, Minnesota’s day of giving on Thursday, November 21 as we recognize Homelessness Awareness Month, or as part of your year-end contributions, all donations are tax-deductible and support our build projects that help Minnesotans in our local communities who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Your donations become dwelling places for our neighbors and fellow Minnesotans. Donate today to provide these spaces, homes, and places of hope for Minnesotans this year and for years to come.
