Saint Patrick’s Association


Since 1967, the St. Patrick’s Association has been the organization behind the greatest Saint Patrick’s Day Parade in the nation, hosted in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Not only does our 100% volunteer group sponsor and coordinate the parade each year, but we also strive to donate at least $10,000 annually to local charities.

Most of our planning and fundraising is done during the six weeks leading up to Saint Patrick’s Day. But, we have a year-round presence serving our community. Whether cleaning up a park on Earth Day, volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House, or spreading cheer during the summer parades, you will undoubtedly see us sporting our green throughout the Twin Cities.
