Become a Steady Change donor by investing in social change with a monthly gift to Community Shares!
Community Shares of Minnesota is a workplace giving organization that turns up the heat. On discrimination. On situations that reinforce poverty. On attitudes that look the other way at inequality.
And by turning up the heat with smart and effective solutions — led by the very
communities that are often held down — we’re creating a world where a single working parent has access to both good and affordable childcare. Where entire neighborhoods can have a voice in policy decisions that affect their daily lives. A place where charities become less necessary.
Don’t get us wrong. Charity is good. But change is better.

"Community Shares makes it easy for me and my colleagues by coming to our workplace and providing us the opportunity to play a larger role in our communities."
