GEN Children’s Charity
In July of 2022, GEN Children’s Charity will host a charity golf tournament to benefit Metro Hope Ministries. This is a one-of-a-kind program in the Twin Cities that allows women to live with their children while they learn to become self-sufficient through sobriety, education, and job training. This healing environment gives these children the space to feel safe and secure which allows them to flourish as well. Our goal is to make improvements to the Healing House building allowing them to secure a Minnesota Daycare License, improve both their onsite chapel and classroom, and transform a currently unusable outside area into a fully landscaped garden and playground.

GEN Children’s Charity is a 501(c)(3) organization that holds a golf tournament every two years to raise money on behalf of a Twin Cities organization focused on helping disadvantaged children. Since 1998, GEN Children’s Charity events have raised funds for organizations like The Page Foundation, College Possible, Bolder Options, Make A Wish, and others.

Holiday Gift Match
GEN Financial celebrates the holiday season by matching our clients’ donations to the charity of their choice. For the past decade, GEN Financial has been matching donations up to $50 made by our clients to organizations like area churches, Alzheimer’s Association, Second Harvest Heartland, the Salvation Army, and many others.

GEN Client Birthday Contribution
We like to celebrate our clients’ birthdays by making a charitable donation to a different charity each year. In 2023, our birthday donations will be made to Charity: Water. We are pleased to continue to support organizations that increase opportunities for children and families.
