Give Today
When a family in Hennepin County opens a shut-off notice, faces an eviction filing, or finds the car they depend on won’t start, the difference between a hard month and a genuine crisis is often a matter of a few hundred dollars.
Your gift helps CAP-HC equip residents with the tools to address poverty and build lasting economic stability. Every dollar makes Hennepin County a place where your neighbors can thrive.
Recurring gifts can be set up with a credit or debit card, bank transfer, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Venmo is available for one-time donations only.
CAP-HC is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our Employer Identification Number (EIN) is 41-1524088.

“I was having problems trying to make my disability payments last all month and be able to save money … My car also needed some work. It felt hopeless. [Now] I am hopeful that I will be able to use [my car] to find part-time work so I can save for a home.”

Employer Matching Gifts
If your employer has a matching gift program, you might be able to double (or even triple!) your donation to CAP-HC. It’s an easy way to make your donation go even further to support people with low incomes as they lift themselves out of poverty.
Here’s how to do it:
- Make a donation to CAP-HC. If you recently made a donation, skip to step 2.
- Check with your employer to see if your contribution can be matched.
- If your employer is matching your contribution, follow their instructions and select CAP-HC as the recipient of the matching gift. If your employer doesn’t have specific instructions available, contact your Human Resources or Business Office for more information.
Sponsor a FAmily
When the coldest months of the year hit, it can strain budgets and add stress for people who already struggle to provide basic needs for their families. CAP-HC’s Sponsor-a-Family Program utilizes your generosity to help families with low incomes build toward stability so they can reclaim the celebratory spirit of the winter season.
Now in its 5th year, CAP-HC’s Sponsor-a-Family Program is looking for sponsors to match with at least 10 families in need – now through November 10.
