Donations
Donations benefit CommonBond’s youth services which offer educational and after-school programs to help the 2,000 at-risk youth who live in CommonBond Communities. Your support helps build strong futures for kids like 17-year-old Ahmed, alum of CommonBond’s Advantage Services who was recently honored by the City of St. Paul for an act of heroism in his neighborhood.

Special thanks to Dr. Arnold Leonard for the unique collaboration on the Baldy event performed during dinner. VIPs get their heads shaved during this hair-raising part of the night to fund CommonBond youth programs and the Arnold S. Leonard Cancer Research Fund at the University of Minnesota.
Dr. Leonard received the 2010 Lifetime Achievement Award from the Minnesota Medical Foundation, University of Minnesota Pediatric Department, and the University of Minnesota Amplatz Children’s Hospital. Dr. Leonard’s salmonella-based cancer therapy is in the clinical trial stage. Your support to CommonBond’s Baldy event will be split 50% with the ASL Cancer Research Fund.
