The Event
The Eden Prairie Foundation Ball is the Eden Prairie Foundation’s largest fundraiser of the year. This year, we acknowledge our “Best Small City in America” designation by Money magazine with the theme, “Eden Prairie – My kind of Town.” This theme celebrates how we feel about the great place we call home. So come join us in this special community celebration and help us continue to “give where we live/and or work.”
_________________________________For Good. For Eden Prairie. For Ever.

The Mission
The Foundation Ball is an annual event that brings together residents, commerce, and service organizations in an effort to raise the profile of the Eden Prairie Foundation and the community it serves. Monies raised at the Foundation Ball help build the Foundation’s endowment and benefit the organizations that help make Eden Prairie a special to live and work. Strengthening the bonds that connect us and lifting up the community at large is a mission we all support with our time, talent and resources. Your contributions make a significant, positive impact on the quality of life in our “Best Small City in America (2010).”
