Social Venture Partners Minnesota

Grant making: Social Venture Partners Minnesota provides grants to youth-serving projects and provides collaborative consulting on capacity building projects so that the organizations can make a greater impact with the youth they serve and for the community. We also provide a cohort peer-learning model for the executive directors for our current and alumni investee organizations

Svp mn has started a youth leadership program that allows young people to serve on a youth led grantmaking taskforce where they decide on what the most critical issues facing youth are, what organizations are doing good work to address these issues and make decisions on who to fund. These young people also have an opportunity to facilitate the next cohort of the taskforce and join our annual grantmaking committee work.

Partner education and support: we provide education, training and support for our donor Partners so that they can become more effective consultants and philanthropists. We also have a cohort peer-learning model for our lead Partners who work on the impact teams with the investee organizations.
