Morrie’s Brooklyn Park Subaru stopped by Simpson’s new administrative and program office to deliver the funds raised with this year’s Share the Love partnership! They raised over $17,400 for Simpson’s shelter and housing programs. We couldn’t be more grateful for this show of support.

We’re working with a new platform for our Art 4 Shelter online store this year, and we’re experiencing some technical difficulties.

We want this sale to be fun and easy, so we’ve decided to postpone it long enough to get our ducks in a row. The new opening will take place June 24 and will close July 11. Apologies for the delay, and thank you for your patience. Learn more about the virtual sale.

Art 4 Shelter’s virtual art sale is officially live! You can officially peruse hundreds of unique, affordable works of art from the comfort of your home. Best of all: the proceeds go toward Simpson’s shelter and housing programs. But don’t wait; the sale ends at noon on June 5.

Simpson’s fiscal year ends June 30.

We have $100,000 left to raise to meet our fundraising goal and support our shelter and housing programs. You can help us end the fiscal year strong by making a gift today, so we can keep partnering with individuals and families to build community, provide transformational services, and end homelessness, together. All gifts, big and small, make a difference.

Vice President of Branch Banking Caitlin Winter says Simpson’s deep roots in Minneapolis – 40 years and counting – made it a good fit for Bridgewater. She says she “really saw a correlation” between the way Bridgewater and Simpson viewed their relationships with community members. Learn more about this local business supporting Simpson.

Featuring volunteers Sami Neymark, Daniella Morales, and Donna & Scott Brothers.
