Donate to our organization

The Wedge neighborhood, a vibrant and eclectic community in the heart of south Minneapolis, is home to hundreds of small businesses and 9,000 people (86% of which are renters from all walks of life). Your donation funds programming like our Food Share, LHENA Volunteer Network, Environmental Committee, and much more. Read on about some of our programming below.
Food Share: Created and run by neighbor-volunteers – this program offers free groceries twice a month to anyone in the Wedge who needs it. This means one bag of fresh fruit/vegetables and one bag of pantry items, free of cost. 

LHENA Volunteer Network: In response to the 2020 pandemic, uprisings and the urgent need for mutual aid, LHENA neighbors organized to help those most impacted. Since then, neighbors have found the need for mutual aid doesn't stop there. The LHENA Volunteer Network consists of over 100 active volunteer-neighbors that expanded to initiatives such as snow shoveling, ridesharing, coat drives, community events, and much more. 

Environmental Committee: The Environmental Committee strives to improve air, water, soil, and habitat quality through neighborhood and surrounding community engagement. They’re currently working on building biodiversity in the neighborhood through the restoration of native habitat in addition to  two neighborhood cleanups, and operating the organics recycling program for tenants as a way to reduce waste. 

In addition to these programs, LHENA has also financially supported a wide variety of community-oriented initiatives and improvements. Over the years, we’ve sponsored a number of field trips for Ella Baker School students, a Get out the Vote campaign, free tenant-landlord mediation, and much more.

By donating to our organization below, you help ensure that programs like these are able to operate at full capacity and continue to serve the Wedge community. 
​

​We​ exist to provide a structure for neighborhood leadership, offer avenues of participation, promote shared resources, and carry forward a shared vision of our beloved neighborhood. ​​Your donations make that possible. Thank you so much.
