Minnesotans’ Military Appreciation Fund (MMAF) is a statewide fundraising initiative by the citizens of Minnesota, for Minnesota military personnel and their families. Launched in August of 2005, MMAF is a non-partisan, non-political, 501(C)(3) non-profit corporation. The mission of MMAF is to say "thanks" to Minnesota Service members and their families who are making sacrifices in the defense of our freedoms in combat zones around the world. MMAF has raised over $14 million, making it the nation’s largest-ever statewide fundraiser of its kind. MMAF has provided more than 8.5 million dollars in grants to more than 14,500 recipients.

In order to provide grants to every eligible service member, it will take the generous contributions of as many caring Minnesota citizens as possible. Thousands already have participated. Please join us in saying "thanks."
