About Tartan Area Youth Enrichment
Tartan Area Youth Enrichment Inc. channels its giving through volunteer-earned donation funds, with grants tied to shifts worked at sporting and event venues. That structure shows up in the recent grants record: large awards have gone to a higher-education association in Cottage Grove across multiple years, while smaller awards support local youth activities, schools, and community programs. The foundation’s recent grantmaking is built around education and youth enrichment, with sports, dance, music, and club-based activities appearing alongside tuition and books. The pattern is not limited to one type of recipient. Alongside the higher-education association, the foundation has supported DeLaSalle High School in Minneapolis, St. Thomas Academy in Mendota Heights, and St. Croix Lutheran High School in West St. Paul. It has also made grants to youth sports and enrichment groups such as Legacy Parents Booster Club, Crossfire Youth Sports, Just for Kix, and Stella Dance Studio. The result is a mix of larger institutional support and smaller community-based grants connected to youth participation and access.

Education is the clearest theme in the recent grant list. Tartan Area Youth Enrichment Inc. gave $191,369 in 2025 to Higher Education Association in Cottage Grove for education, following a $232,130 grant in 2024 and a $94,722 grant in 2023 to the same recipient. The foundation also backs K–12 and secondary-school institutions. It awarded $59,316 to DeLasalle High School in Minneapolis in 2025 and $18,731 to St. Thomas Academy in Mendota Heights in the same year. Youth athletics is another recurring focus. Grants include $25,469 to Legacy Parents Booster Club in St. Paul for youth athletics and $15,273 to Crossfire Youth Sports in Champlin. Arts-based youth enrichment appears as well, including $21,432 to Stella Dance Studio in Prescott, Wisconsin.
How Tartan Area Youth Enrichment Gives
Typical awards are in the low five figures, with a p25 of $8,664, a median of $11,672, and a p75 of $25,637. The distribution suggests many modest grants alongside a small number of much larger education awards. The recent record also shows repeat support over multiple years for the same recipients, especially the Higher Education Association and several schools. Tartan Area Youth Enrichment Inc. operates as a volunteer-earned donation funder rather than a grantmaker with an open application process, and it does not fund individuals.
