Growing Together
People like you allow MEDA to create an economy that works for all. All gifts are tax-deductible — MEDA is a 501(c)(3) organization.
Bold ideas, real impact.
MEDA believes every bold business idea deserves to be seen, heard, and championed, especially BIPOC entrepreneurs that have historically been left behind and blocked from opportunities.
Since 1971, MEDA has helped thousands of underserved entrepreneurs who have been turned away, knocked down, and under-estimated, overcome barriers with customized business consulting, access to capital, and connections to peers, partners, education, and resources. Working together, they have created new pathways to success, financial freedom, and generational wealth.
To keep doing this vital work, we rely on the generosity of people who value innovation, equity, and hard work. Be part of the solution. Your donation is an investment that fuels economic development and uplifts communities throughout Minnesota. When BIPOC entrepreneurs succeed, entire communities rise with them.
Thank you for your support!
