Ellie Krug
“I point to Minnesota Women’s Press’s active statewide network as a model for other organizations. It has shown up when other publications and media have ignored important, critical issues that affect all Minnesotans.”

Shannon Gibney
“I support Minnesota Women’s Press because the stories and voices it highlights are not seen anywhere else. And they are crucial to the development of our communities, the state, and the whole country.”

Priscilla Trinh
“When you open Minnesota Women’s Press magazine, you are not just provided feel-good local stories or depressing national headlines — you will be met with raw stories and practical pathways to engage with your community.”
