Individual Donors
Individuals Who Help MESA, Help Startups
The MESA Impact Circle is our individual giving program designed to help sustain MESA’s work and build a stronger financial foundation for the future.
MESA believes that promising software startups should have access to experienced guidance, regardless of their financial resources. As demand for MESA mentoring grows, so do the costs of supporting our programs. We’re committed to keeping administration fees low for emerging companies, including no fees for our lower-revenue mentees.
Your contributions supports MESA’s ongoing operations, outreach to prospective mentees and mentors, and development of resources that help startup software companies grow. They also help provide the financial stability needed to serve Minnesota’s startup community into the future.
As a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN: 86-3058659), MESA provides confirmation of all charitable-giving records. Your contribution is tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
