Powerful Relationships. Thriving Communities. Engaged Philanthropy. We Go Beyond Philanthropy. At Social Venture Partners Minnesota, we make a greater impact by giving not only our money, but also our time, talents, and connections to improve our community. We amplify the impact of those out to do good in three distinct ways: 1. Connect and engage individuals, helping them make the greatest impact with their philanthropic giving. See our 2017 Impact Report for more details. 2. Fund and strengthen nonprofits, helping them take their vital work for teens to the next level. 3. Invest in collaborative solutions, so those with a common cause can align their efforts and go farther, together.
