The DMNA Board will also be giving out the 2025 Volunteer of the Year Award at our Annual Meeting. We are currently seeking nominations for this award.

The Volunteer of the Year Award is the highest honor offered by DMNA. It began to honor an individual who has advanced the mission of the DMNA to promote the common good and general welfare of the residents, businesses, and employees of Downtown Minneapolis.

Any individual who lives, works, or owns property in Downtown East or Downtown West that advances the mission of the DMNA through their volunteerism or advocacy is eligible. Generally, current board members and current employees are not eligible. Exceptions may be made at the discretion of the staff and board of directors. Recipients are chosen by a small group comprised of the DMNA board and committee leadership. Candidates offered by October 1 will be considered. Please submit your nominations via the link below:
