Community involvement

We love giving back

Not to sound cliché, but we really, really like to give back to our communities – both financially and through our time and talents. Our employees jump at the chance to volunteer and wear our company’s stewardship badge proudly. They’re energetic, passionate and love helping organizations that touch a special place in their hearts.  In 2025, we supported more than 150 organizations in Apple Valley, Eagan, Edina, Rochester and their surrounding communities with charitable grants and sponsorships.

A culture of caring

Vibrant communities thrive on connection, opportunity, and shared purpose. At Think, we channel our energy, enthusiasm, and resources into helping our communities grow even stronger. Whether we’re partnering with nonprofits to advance their missions or supporting customers as they pursue their financial goals, our approach remains the same: give our best, lead with heart, and make a meaningful difference. Together, we can build communities where everyone has the chance to flourish—and we’re proud to play our part.
 

 

Think Gives Day

Think Gives Day is an annual one-day event that has become a beloved, highly anticipated tradition among our employees and the organizations we help. In 2025, we closed our offices for a day to send our team out into the community to help 20 organizations paint, clean, pack, move, rake, build, haul, and much more. 

Arts & Culture
