Looking for an amazing volunteer opportunity? The Sanneh Foundation (TSF) will hold our annual Gala4Goals auction on February 25, 2017, at the Saint Paul RiverCentre. Volunteering assists us in generating essential financial resources we need to continue providing high-quality youth development programs. In 2016 alone, TSF served the needs of our increasingly diverse communities within the Twin Cities metro area by: providing free summer camps for 7,500 youth; providing academic and behavioral support to nearly 700 students in partnership with the public school districts of Saint Paul, Minneapolis and St. Cloud; and providing summer and after-school activities and nutrition program on pace to serve 35,000 hot meals to youth and families this year at Conway Community Center. The success of TSF’s Gala4Goals depends greatly on the support of our volunteers that believe in our mission. We invite you to be involved by volunteering the weekend of Gala4Goals, February 24-26. Please contact Katrinna Dodge at kdodge@thesannehfoundation.org directly to discuss your preferences for assignment. Your support positively impacts the lives of underserved youth from the Twin Cities to Central Minnesota. TSF appreciates your participation and I look forward to hearing from you.
