Urban Ventures

Urban Ventures

They exist to "build successful community within the city through developing youth leadership, strengthening families and creating meaningful work opportunities." The programs of Urban Ventures serve more than 2,500 adults and youth each year. Founded in 1993, Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation strives to be a positive catalyst for neighborhood transformation by offering a supportive hand-up to the least, the last, and the lost of the Central and Phillips neighborhoods of South Minneapolis. The change that has happened in this neighborhood, this area of Minneapolis, has been astonishing. And it was all made possible through the work of volunteers. Urban Ventures began out of a desperate need for hope in South Minneapolis. Hope for lives free of violence… hope for educational opportunities… hope for families… and most importantly, a hope for a brighter future. jacob's well is a part of the hope that Urban Ventures talks about providing for the neighborhood. There are any number of different ways to get involved for both individuals and groups
