Overview

Mission

To foster positive relationships within and between neighborhoods in the Aurora St. Anthony, Frogtown, and Summit University (Rondo) areas of Saint Paul, MN. Our vision is to improve social and economic conditions for community members in order to foster greater stability, resilience, community vibrancy, and long-term success, particularly for Black families. 2025 was a stabilizing year after internal transitions, strengthening our capacity for renewed programmatic work in 2026.

What it reported doing in 2025

The Legacy Stabilization Collaborative convenes Black-led legacy institutions across Saint Paul and Minneapolis to share strategies, address common challenges, and strengthen the organizational infrastructure needed for long-term sustainability. Led by ASANDC, the Collaborative supports organizations navigating chronic underfunding, leadership transitions, and limited access to flexible capital while advancing a Black Legacy Institution Sustainability Blueprint to influence regional philanthropic and public sector investment

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
