BECOME A PARTNER
ARE YOU INTERESTED...
in a unique model of philanthropy? Do you want to be part of catalyzing equitable change? SVP is a bridge between community and philanthropy. We’ll connect you to people and organizations who share your passion for better futures for youth. And we’ll match you with opportunities that meet your goals and skill set.
How it Works
Partners make an annual contribution to SVP Minnesota. These donations are supplemented with corporate and foundation support. All funds are pooled and invested through:
- making grants to youth-serving organizations,
- hosting workshops, events and programs that advance our mission, and
- providing administrative support to sustain the SVP model.
This is how your financial donation is more than just writing a check, but leveraged to amplify its impact.
Partner roles are very flexible. Some Partners simply use us as a way to make a highly leveraged gift. Others take advantage of our education sessions and peer learning opportunities. And some Partners roll up their sleeves and dig into collaborative consultancy projects.
Partners
Partners typically join through our Together for Good Cohort that begins each April. This is a 3,000 contribution for one person or if you bring a friend it is 2,00 for each. We invite young professionals and nonprofit leaders to join at the 1,000 – 3,000 level. After year one the sky’s the limit!!
Partners feel the power of collective giving and many raise their donation to higher levels, anywhere from $5,000 to $25,000.
