Community members and organizations wishing to help

Thank you for your support of Anoka-Hennepin students, we appreciate your generosity. During this unprecedented time, we're leaning on our community for support - we're stronger together!

At this time, we're unable to accept food donations or to provide volunteer opportunities. However,  here are some ways to support our Anoka-Hennepin students:

Want to provide financial support?

Anoka-Hennepin Education Foundation is responding to the COVID-19 pandemic by asking for donations to meet the emerging needs of students and staff. Your donations will give the capacity and flexibility to meet the not yet known (and not necessarily budgeted for) needs to ensure students and staff are able to effectively implement distance learning.

Donate now at AHEF Agility Fund to keep kids connected, engaged and learning. 

Want to provide time or items?

Consider supporting a local organization currently working to meet the needs of our students and their families (district and community resources list above).
