Van Valkenburg Children's Fund

The Van Valkenburg Children's Fund was established to provide financial support for programs in our community that serve children and families in need.  The Fund was established on November 2, 2007, to celebrate Edina's former Mayor, James
Van Valkenburg and his dedication to the Foundation in
the 30 years since its creation.

The fund supports youth programs in Edina including
Edina Park and Recreation Scholarships,
Adaptive Recreation, Connecting with Kids,
and Summer of Opportunity scholarship for YMCA camps.

To support this fund, simply indicate that you want
your contribution to benefit the Van Valkenburg
Children's Fund.
