SMALL HAUS. BIG IMPACT

We see a growing trend among our clients and other professionals to use their talents, products, and services to create a better world. We at IMAGEHAUS are on that same critical path. We are using the power of design to create connections for positive social, environmental, and business impact.

ELIGIBILITY

IMAGEHAUS awards quarterly grants to reduce the creative services costs paid by organizations in our community that help people in need. These grants are based on our core values—compassion, creativity, candor, and courage—the 4Cs. They enable our vision of the future.

HOW 4C WORKS:

All Twin Cities-based 501(c)(3) organizations can apply, using this downloadable 4C grant application.

After consideration based on needs and our 4C criteria, a full market value estimate is created. Grants awarded cover a large percent of the cost of the project, but do not cover the entire amount.

It is this approach that has allowed us to successfully help more than 75 organizations in 25 years.
