Kari LeVan

Kari has been singing in the Twin Cities for 12 years. She is now designing logos, template-based websites, posters, banners and more. Both goals have equal weight for Kari as they both create income and are careers she enjoys and flourishes in.

Kari used the grant money for replacing her laptop, car repair, work clothing and a much-needed stage monitor. She is now able to travel, look professional and work on her laptop as needed for design and music. My coach at Jeremiah Program helped me focus on the steps that needed to be taken to succeed.

Kari has been volunteering at Jeremiah Program as an intern.

“I’m training myself and applying for work which will utilize my graphic design abilities. MicroGrants is fully deserving of community support and recognition in helping focused, career-driven people (in need of a little extra help) to reach their full potential”.

September 2026 Program Update

MicroGrants grantmaking is currently paused as we work through internal operations and determine next steps for the program.

For our partner agencies: We will continue to share updates directly with you as more information becomes available.

For individuals seeking a grant: MicroGrants does not distribute grants directly to individuals. Our grants are distributed through nonprofit partner agencies that identify and support eligible recipients. If you are seeking financial assistance, we recommend contacting one of our partner agencies directly to learn about available resources and eligibility.
