Donations

We are invested in our community. Wedge Community Co-ops’ donation program exists to provide support to local fundraisers, silent auctions, or other one-time events. We have a limited quarterly budget, and while we wish we could fund the dozens of requests we receive, the following criteria and parameters will be helpful for organizations wishing to receive support.

donation criteria

  • Donation requests are accepted through this form only, and require a minimum of six weeks notice.
  • Donations are granted to non-partisan and non-sectarian 501(c)(3) nonprofits.
  • Priority is given to organizations in the Twin Cities, specifically near our stores.
  • We prioritize organizations working in food access, sustainability/environmental causes, community development and engagement, arts and education, initiatives by People of the Global Majority, and LGBTQ equity.
  • Donations are generally granted to organizations one time during the co-op’s fiscal year (July-June).
  • Past support of an organization or event is not a guarantee of future support.

We receive far more requests than we can fulfill; if your organization is selected to receive a donation, you will be contacted within 2 weeks of making your request. Donations must be picked up at either of our locations, Wedge Lyndale or Wedge Linden Hills. 

sponsorships

If you are looking for a contribution valued higher than $50, consider placing a sponsorship request. Sponsorships are reserved for events or programs with strong mission-alignment with the co-op. Email outreach@tccp.coop with your sponsorship request.
