Cana Family Institute

Welcome to our Cana Family Institute GTTM page! 

Give to the Max is an important year-end fundraising campaign for us, as it is for many other non-profit organizations in Minnesota. With your help, our goal is to raise at least $10,000 for our 2025 Give to the Max campaign.

By the end of December, we need to raise a total of $100,000 in order to stay on track with our fundraising goals this season. Achieving our Give to the Max goal will be a huge step towards reaching our overall year-end goal.
