Established in 2005, the Stretch Fund of the Minneapolis Foundation is committed to making the world a better place through building leadership skills in kids ages 6-18 to help them lead lives of courage and adventure. When we reach $2 million in the Fund, the intent is to give back with a primary focus on children and education. The Stretch Fund is supported by the Minneapolis Foundation – one of the first community foundations in the world, which brings together people, ideas, and resources to improve the lives of all people.
