MNME MISSION STATEMENT
The Minnesota Military & Veterans Exchange (MNme) is a coalition and community
with one simple goal: to create a rallying point for all things related to
creating healthier military and prior service communities.
​
HOW MNme WORKS
​
Men and women from every military branch form a community bonded by their commitment to serve. Having served, these individuals often find themselves grappling with a vast array of unique circumstances. Unfortunately, there is no one-size approach the community can take to address these situations. Instead, the we must come together to create a network, a consolidated hub of communication. MNme is that hub.
​
We raise awareness of the existing supportive community and strengthen the connections military, prior service members, their families and caregivers have to that community.
We encourage all organizations that honor and support those currently serving and veterans to use this site to find each other, connect, share information, and collaborate.
​

WE RAISE THE PROFILE OF THE MINNESOTA VETERAN COMMUNITY
While it’s true that some prior service members need help, many more are eager to GIVE help. Those who have retired from the military are among the most disciplined, loyal, trustworthy, and capable citizens of our country. MNme works to shift perceptions of prior service members, helping people understand their experiences and embrace their boundless potential.
