About EDEN PRAIRIE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

Eden Prairie Community Foundation is a local community foundation, founded in 1981, that mobilizes philanthropy, partners with donors and nonprofits, and serves as a fiscal sponsor and grantmaker for projects that benefit Eden Prairie residents. The Foundation manages donor-advised and community-impact funds, awards scholarships, operates competitive Impact Grants, and hosts community fundraising events such as the EP Gives gala.

In the last 2–3 years the Foundation recorded its largest granting year in 2024 and, according to its public filings and newsletters, continued active grantmaking across priorities that include food security, housing, mental-health support, youth programs, scholarships, parks and the arts. The Foundation’s FY2023/Form 990 reporting (fiscal year ending June 2024) shows roughly $756,727 in revenue and nearly $2.0M in assets, and Foundation communications estimate thousands of local residents were reached by its 2024 grants and programs.
