Community Impact Program

Building Edina, one great idea at a time

Fulfilling Edina Community Foundation's mission, we serve as the charitable giving partner for more than 80 independent community organizations.

Through this unique program, ECF partners with Edina residents to start and run valuable projects and programs that directly impact our community. From arts and sports organizations to neighborhood groups and memorial funds, the Edina Community Foundation is the incubator for the Edina nonprofit community.

Since 2022, we have added fourteen new Community Impact Funds for local nonprofit organizations and programs.
