Youthprise

Youthprise (the Organization) is a Minnesota not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation established in 2010 by The McKnight Foundation. Youthprise is a youth-centered philanthropic organization that invests in the future of Minnesota by investing in youth. Our mission is to increase equity with and for Minnesota's Indigenous, low-income, and racially diverse youth. We envision a Minnesota where outcomes for youth are no longer predictable by race, geography, or socioeconomic status. We strategically combine funding, capacity building, policy advocacy, and research, and authentically engage young people in our governance and operations.
