Hamline Midway Coalition

Do you care about the Hamline-Midway Neighborhood? Do you want to support neighbors who are volunteering to make our neighborhood a fun, safe, and resilient community? Please consider a donation to the Hamline Midway Coalition!

The Hamline Midway Coalition (HMC) is a neighborhood nonprofit that exists to empower residents to shape our community based on shared aspirations and values. We are also the official district council for the Hamline-Midway neighborhood. Our goal is to bring neighbors together to help build a connected & healthy community.  We are the only nonprofit organization dedicated solely to ensuring the Midway is a great place to live, work, and play.  

Here's a snapshot of what we did this year. This is just some of what your donation makes possible:

• We served ~90 families each week at the Midway Project with free groceries and diapers. 
• We have planted 50 free trees in the neighborhood with 50+ more on deck for next year.  
• We held community conversations with United Village, Metro Transit, St. Paul Police Department, and more.
• We worked with Union Park, Midway Chamber, and African Economic Development Solutions to found the Snelling & University Alliance, a community partnership dedicated to one of St. Paul's most important intersections!
• We adopted the Green Line stops at University and Snelling. You can see us out cleaning up the stops on Wednesdays and Sundays!
• We cohosted the Mighty Midway Festival
• We hosted our annual Ice Cream Social!
• We hosted an Art in the Park event at Dickerman Park, during the St. Paul Art Crawl!
• We hosted the first Annual Big Ole Trash Party, partnering with volunteers from our neighbors in Union Park and collecting 100+ bags of trash!
• We hosted a business brungh this spring, and started a series of Monthly Midway Meetups--gathering neighbors together to visit local businesses.

 

We don't do any of our work alone! HMC is anchored by neighbors just like you. Donations from residents and local businesses are an investment in our community, and community-generated funds play an important role in determining the scope and focus of our work. The more you give, the more we can do to benefit our community. Thank you for considering making a donation today!
