Our Partners
Jana's Fund
Jana's Fund was created in memory of Jana Gulbrandson, who passed away in 1996 at age 14. Jana was known for her compassion towards others and always rooted for the underdog. The mission of the fund is to honor Jana's memory by providing grants to organizations that support childhood health, wellness, and education. Since Jana’s Fund was created at the Minneapolis Foundation, Apple Autos has donated over $250,000 to organizations that support kids.
