Annex Teen Clinic

Announcing the Launch of the Brian Russ Building Fund

The Annex Teen Clinic’s Executive Director of 31 years, Brian Russ, is retiring this August. Brian has left an indelible mark on the Robbinsdale community. Amongst his many accomplishments is moving the Annex from the basement of the Robbinsdale Gallery to our present location today. 

We cannot overstate how important having our own building has been for improving the quality and impact of our services. Young people deserve a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment – which includes everything from caring staff to a cozy space. 

Brian has been a champion of this building. From securing funds for the move to keeping the lights on every day, we can honor Brian’s legacy through showing some love to our physical space. 

Why does the Annex Need Me to Contribute?

Through donating to the Brian Russ Building Fund, you will support all those things that aren’t flashy but are necessary. From our aging roof, to cracked sidewalks, and that pesky basement leak, we will always need funds to keep our building in working order. 

If you'd like to make a donation to the fund, please be sure to fill in "Brian Russ Building Fund" on the dedication line of your donation.
