INVEST IN EQUITY ACROSS OUR DUAL LANGUAGE SCHOOLS Help great ideas grow beyond one classroom. What if a donation could do more than support one school? What if it could help create opportunities across an entire community of Spanish Dual Language learners?
Colectiva Bilingüe brings together families, educators, and community members from five Minneapolis Public Schools Spanish Dual Language programs: Emerson, Green Central, Las Estrellas, Andersen, and Roosevelt. Our annual Give to the Max campaign supports the Colectiva Equitable Student Experience Grant Fund, which puts resources directly into the hands of educators who are building strong family and student partnerships to advance bilingual education.
WHY GIVE TO COLECTIVA?
We believe every student deserves a rich dual language experience, regardless of which school they attend or how much fundraising their individual school community can generate. School-based fundraisers support the communities where they take place. Giving to Colectiva adds another layer of support: a shared pool of resources that can help address gaps in opportunity between schools and support ideas that connect our broader dual language community. This is Community-Centric Fundraising in action. We recognize that our schools and families are interconnected. We work toward collective well-being, share resources with equity in mind, and invest in ideas shaped by the people closest to students.
