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.

"I believe the collective strength of Community Shares of Minnesota's progressive member organizations creates a viable, long term, and stable coalition that effectively enacts systemic change that benefits all in our society."
