A Good Example of How the Northeast Metro’ s Nonprofits Collaborate
Solid Ground works collaboratively with other nonprofits in the Northeast Metro to make sure all the needs of the families it serves are met. Because of the renovations underway, summer camps for kids in 2024 had to be relocated to Redeemer Lutheran Church and Newtrax provided transportation. The White Bear Area Food Shelf provided Thanksgiving meals for the families staying at East Metro Place.
“ We couldn’ t do the work without the help of our partners.”
