Our work improves the physical spaces of the neighborhood and improves the quality of life for those living in and around the Lyndale neighborhood. more than 7,400 people, Lyndale is one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Minnesota. false false 221087 13483 24035 Located in the heart of South Minneapolis, our neighborhood is comprised of people from all walks of life, all incomes, and all places of origin all over the planet. In 2020, our work contributed to our neighborhood by: -Providing approximately 2,300 hours of free English language and adult basic education instruction to nearly 100 new Minnesotans; both in person at 3 community locations prior to closing classrooms due to COVID 19 and remotely during the pandemic. We provided distance learning options for learners with digital access and created a custom remote curriculum to serve learners without digital access/digital literacy skills. We mailed monthly themed units (examples: "Community/My City", "Food & Shopping", "Goals & Plans", "At Work", etc.) with lessons assembled as paper packets and, using our crew of professional teachers and highly trained and supported volunteers, taught learners 1-on-1 over the phone and WhatsApp. While we were not able to provide 6-12 hours of weekly synchronous classroom instruction as we do in non-pandemic times, upon returning to in-person instruction in 2021 and retesting our learners' English reading proficiency, we found that learners who had participated in remote learning 2-3 hours per week had not lost much ground in their learning, and had made incredible gains in some cases! - Bringing hundreds of neighbors together by hosting monthly community meetings - Improving safety in the neighborhood through the organization of the Lyndale Walkers Neighborhood Patrol - Communicating important happenings through publication of our award winning newspaper, Voces de South Central, via our neighbors email list and on our website, www.lyndale.org - Building opportunities for local businesses in the neighborhood by raising and distributing 100K in small business grants to businesses impacted by the Lake Street Uprisings in partnership with Lyndale, Whittier, South Uptown, Wedge, and Lyn/Lake and Uptown Business Associations - Engaging more than 100 active volunteers in various community building projects in the neighborhood, including over 800 hours of volunteer teaching with adult English learners - Serving as a communication conduit between neighbors, developers and the city government on important land acquisitions and zoning changes in the neighborhood. - Ensuring food security to those in need by providing and fundraising to donate thousands of healthy meals to neighbors (in particular, supporting families and elderly neighbors in public housing who were cut off from resources post-uprising in 2020) and providing over an acre of land to community gardeners to provide their own produce and donate produce to other community members in need - Providing many other services that improve and bring together the Lyndale community. 221087 true true false false false false false false true false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 1 0 7 true false false false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false true true true false false false true true true true true false true true false MI X The organization 6128249402 3537 Nicollet Avenue Minneapolis MN 55408 Kyle Samejima Board chair 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Devin Hogan Vice President 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Anna Newcombe Secretary 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Ed Janezich Treasurer 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Danda Haji Board member 3.00 X 0 0 0 Josh Dibley Board member 3.00 X 0 0 0 Abraham Reddy Board member 3.00 X 0 0 0 Mohamed Hirsi Board member 3.00 X 0 0 0 Brad Bourn Executive Director 3.00 X 61802 0 1998 61802 0 1998 false false false 222631 30066 252697 9 0 9 24035 24035 24035 7235 16800 276741 7235 0 16809 13483 13483 61802 30901 15451 15450 125245 112720 7515 5010 4630 4121 278 231 15610 12488 1873 1249 10055 0 10055 0 1780 1780 0 0 6240 3428 2812 0 4855 2961 1505 389 22970 18376 2756 1838 2251 2251 0 0 11975 9555 1295 1125 2674 0 2674 0 Newsletter 7056 7056 0 0 Communications 1967 1967 0 0 Fees and other 1855 0 1855 0 294448 221087 48069 25292 134771 44684 8368 122138 106436 106569 10994 1748 29407 23820 366604 168419 210160 198185 500136 497144 11982 8601 59911 46639 33400 35326 36295 107219 124935 X 372917 345817 20000 26392 392917 372209 500136 497144 -17707 -3001 X false false false X 0 518517 525908 414347 391112 252697 2102581 0 0 518517 525908 414347 391112 252697 2102581 0 2102581 9696 19540 19135 19506 24035 91912 0 8874 8874 2203367 197509 0.95430 X 0 0 0 Pt II Ln 10 Other Income Part II, Line 10 Description: Other income 2016: 8874.
