The Kingfield Neighborhood Association (KFNA) is a community-based nonprofit that covers the area of 36th to 46thStreet and 35W to the middle of Lyndale Avenue. The mission of the organization is “Serving Kingfield by creating connections, building community, and fostering engagement.”

KFNA has spent over 30 years creating community safety by connecting neighbors to each other, building a thriving small business and nonprofit network where our business owners and nonprofit leaders are valued members of our neighborhood, and problem solving with neighbors by being the bridge to the City of Minneapolis regarding projects, planning, and issues. KFNA has created a series of innovative projects that celebrate our residents and their talents including PorchFest, Empty Bowls, Light It Up Kingfield, decades of visual art shows, the conceptualization and testing of the first utility box wraps in the City, stormwater management demonstration sites, the launching and management of the Kingfield Farmers Market, establishment and care of the Donation Garden and Community Orchard, and over seventy pieces of public art including the Walldogs on Nicollet project.

We are not a “homeowners association” or a membership organization. Everyone in Kingfield belongs to KFNA. Our work is often low visibility, behind the scenes, and focused on supporting community members. In these uncertain times this support is critical.  Yet the reality is that the city of Minneapolis is facing significant budget pressures and KFNA’s financial support will be cut significantly over the next several years. To continue to exist in our current capacity, we need donations and engagement from you, as neighbors and stakeholders.

Please consider a financial donation to allow KFNA to continue to be an active community builder and voice at the table.  Every dollar helps. Support KFNA Directly this week with any size donation this week as part of Give to the Max.

A Night Out in Community Tonight?

By

Enjoy a night out with your neighbors on Tuesday September 15th, the alternate date for National Night Out this year. KFNA will not be  delivering ice cream as we usually do, due to COVID-19, and thus we will be deeply missing sharing the evening with you. We encourage you all to remain safe this evening as you enjoy the company of your neighbors: skip the potluck and bring your own food, wear your masks and smile with your eyes, and keep your social distance even when outdoors. 
Happy national night out in community, Kingfield!
