The Ann Bancroft Foundation depends on our Corporate Sponsors to reach our goal of helping girls achieve their goals.
The Ann Bancroft Foundation welcomes corporate sponsorship on an ongoing basis. As an organization we maintain strong relationships with several corporate sponsors throughout the year including Dunn Bros, Best Buy Wolf, Imation, the Women's Foundation of Minnesota, and KARE 11.

The Ann Bancroft Foundation and its generous donors and mentors help underserved girls take the first steps toward fresh possibilities.
An ABF micro-grant—up to $500—funds small experiences for girls. Through the funded experience, and with a mentor’s guidance, girls gain a new perspective on their own abilities and goals.
ABF micro-grant recipients have had a wide variety of adventures. Our donors and mentors have helped girls tour with a choir, attend space camp, learn a foreign language, play sports, and take classes.
As they explore the outside world, recipients also explore themselves, beginning to recognize their own abilities, values, and strengths.
No matter what interest a girl pursues through an ABF micro-grant, program mentors nudge her to use the experience as a springboard to the next exploration—and the next, and the next.
Girls discover new self-confidence and self-knowledge as they open their eyes to the broader world—and to new possibilities within themselves.
The annual Dream Maker Awards recognizes two adults, an organization and one girl for their achievements in life and for supporting other women and girls as they accept challenges and reach toward their potential.
