2023 GIFTS GO TO DIRECTLY TO OUR YOUTH PHILANTHROPY INITIATIVE
Since 2019, Eagan youth have evaluated grant applications, discussed community issues in Eagan, and worked as groups to distribute funding to area nonprofits. Your gift will help address community needs while also providing valuable training for youth philanthropists along the way.

The work of the Eagan Community Foundation relies on the generous support of people like you.
