Give to the Max Day
Help Youth go Beyond the Bell
You have the power to do something special this Give to the Max Day. Partner with YWCA Minneapolis to support youth in our community!
When the school day ends, many young people lose access to caring mentors and opportunities to grow. Our Out-of-School Time Programs help youth go beyond the bell, because their need for safety, connection and academic challenge doesn’t end when class is dismissed.
YWCA Minneapolis youth programs strengthen academic success, leadership skills and overall well-being. We help youth:
Gain tools to advocate for their futures
Build confidence and leadership skills
Discover pathways to college and STEM careers
Create lasting, positive change in their communities
But we need your help. Federal funding for these programs has been cut for next year. Without new support, thousands of young people could lose access to the out-of-school opportunities that help them thrive.
Your gift keeps these programs alive. Right now, it goes twice as far. Thanks to a generous donor, every dollar you give will be matched up to $25,000.
Don’t wait — every moment matters, and every dollar helps provide youth with safety, belonging and opportunity.
