2027 Gala Donations & Sponsors
Cornerstone opened in 2013 as a Pregnancy Medical Clinic and Resource Center in St. Michael, Minnesota, and is currently the only center of its kind in Wright County. We provide 100% free, donor-funded services including pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds, STD testing and treatment, parenting education, material assistance, and personalized referrals. Cornerstone is staffed by medical professionals, nurses, a certified life coach, and a licensed teacher who are committed to supporting women, men, and families facing unexpected pregnancies or other hardships. At the heart of Cornerstone’s mission is the belief that every person is valuable, sacred, and created in the image and likeness of God, and that every woman deserves to be heard, understood, and believed in. Our goal is to provide hope, courage, and practical support so women can confidently choose life for their babies while finding options that work for both of them.
