5th Anniversary Celebration!!!
Rebound, Inc. has been honored to serve the Twin Cities since 2014. We hope that you will consider partnering with us as we celebrate our organization and our amazing partners who have made this service possible! “Unlocking Hope”, as we are calling our 5th Anniversary celebration, will align with our mission to lead the way in the innovation and provision of holistic, community centered, education, advocacy and rehabilitation solutions to the needs of Black youth in the Twin Cities, by providing events targeted to raise awareness and increase wellness in the North Minneapolis community while celebrating our organization and raising general operating capital.
We will kick the week off with a Gala. In addition to a silent auction, raffle, live entertainment and exciting program, the Unlocking Hope Gala will feature Minnesota Vikings Chief Operating Officer, Kevin Warren who will inspire guests with his story of overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds to accomplish success and then leveraging that success to help others in his community. Building on this momentum, the Reform Reimagined Conference will bring change makers from across the country, such as Leslie Redmond, Ephraim Walker & Elizer Darris, to Minnesota for a day of active engagement around the needs of our community and how we can innovate and partner to meet them. Next, a “Carnestifair” will continue this theme by bringing community organizations together for a resource fair, carnival & festival providing free food and face paint along with education and access to support services. Finally, a 5K will serve as capstone to the week while getting community members outside and physically active.

COLLEGE TOUR 2019!!!
With one fantastic college tour under our belt, Rebound, Inc. is gearing up for a bigger, better, COLLEGE TOUR 2019!!! This year, we are hitting the road with EIGHTEEN young men and women for a tour of FIVE historically black colleges and universities in three states.
Rebound, Inc. prioritizes college tours because of our core belief that if shown the possibilities for their lives, young people will achieve great things! Muhammad Ali once said, “If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it - then I can achieve it.” In keeping with this framework for success, exposure to positive possibilities for their lives can be transformational for at risk youth who, with appropriate support from caring adults, can use the seed planted by these experiences to end the cycle of poverty and violence in their communities. Unfortunately, the converse is also true. Young people with perspectives limited by their surroundings can find themselves unable to conceive a future beyond their circumstances. Thanks to the generosity of our community partners, Rebound, Inc. is expanding the horizons of our youth!
