Read About Our 2018-2019 Impact!

It is my privilege to share with you the impact of ACES in 2019.

Over the last 25 years, ACES has provided innovative programming for middle school youth in the Twin Cities. Each year, it’s an honor to see the brilliance that emerges from each one of our young minds as they learn. We are so proud of the achievements of our 2018-2019 ACES faces and thankful for the supporters who helped us achieve that success.

In 2019, ACES served over 450 students, engaging them with exciting sports-based lessons and preparing them with math and social-emotional skills to thrive. We partnered with schools and community centers throughout the Twin Cities, focusing on consistent and high-quality programming for our students – because they deserve the best. We see the collective impact that is possible when all of us are striving for excellence. It is a pleasure for us to share stories of our students thriving in this report.

We could not have done this work without your generous commitment to our youth. We are so grateful for your support – it allows us to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of students each year. Thank you for being a champion for our youth!

In gratitude,
Christina Saunders
Executive Director
