Since 2006, Minnestar has existed to connect, support and grow a thriving Minnesota technology community for everyone. We are a 501c3 nonprofit, committed to providing free events for the community to learn, connect, and get inspired. We are are able to do all this through the support of sponsors and Community Supporters like you!

At Minnebar this weekend, our board of directors led the charge and issued a challenge:

For a 100 day period, for every single person that donates – that donation will be matched by the Minnestar board of directors, up to total of $10,000

We are asking for 100 people to donate $100 in 100 days. Your $100 can turn into $200! The 100 day challenge kicked off on April 14, 2018 (at Minnebar) and it ends July 23, 2018.

We will recognize your contribution with:

  • Priority registration for our events for a year (if you contribute $100 or more)
  • Recognition on our website and at events
  • Opportunity to help us “beta test” new ideas and new events
  • Warm fuzzies knowing you’re helping to sustain and equip the Minnesota tech community long into the future
