A "PBC" is a legal structure that commits the company to focusing on a social mission and making a positive impact on society.  Additionally, a PBC must consider the impact of their decisions not only on shareholders but also on employees, customers, the community, and the local and global environment.

As a PBC, we’re held to higher standards of transparency and accountability. Each year, we report and publish a public benefit assessment measuring our social impact. This structure ensures that our commitment to community health and equity isn’t just a promise, but rather made up of hard data and public accountability.

Note: the PBC structure does not have a tax code classification of 501(c)(3), and therefore contributions are not tax deductible.    

The Access Fund exists to make squash more accessible in the Twin Cities—right from the start. It helps cover early-stage expenses like member subsidies, scholarships, equipment, court leasing, instructor pay, and outreach efforts. These contributions let us open the doors wider, sooner, and to more people.

We’re building a community health model designed to sustain access through its own operations—where affordable, inclusive programming is powered not by outside funding, but by participation itself. Every contribution to the Access Fund helps us get there faster—and proves that fitness, focus, and community don’t have to be limited by income.

We welcome partnerships with local organizations that share our commitment to fitness, equity, and community well-being.

Businesses can get involved through employee wellness programs, teambuilding and leadership programming, event sponsorships, or by supporting access initiatives like youth clinics and sliding-scale memberships.

We also collaborate on community events and welcome in-kind support that helps expand our reach. If you’re interested in bringing squash to your team, your customers, or your neighborhood, we’d love to talk.

Volunteering with us is super flexible—there’s no set time commitment, and no special skills required.

Right now, the biggest way you can help is by spreading the word: invite friends to try a free class, share us on social, or just talk us up.

We’re also looking for folks who want to connect us to the community, offer ideas, or give feedback as we grow. If you’ve got time or talent to offer, that’s fantastic—but if all you do is tell a few people about us, that’s already a huge help. So thank you.

Squash Collective LLC is our research and development entity, which has just kicked FunctionFlow out of the nest to fly on its own. It also holds the intellectual property (IP) for our programs. You may see “Squash Collective” listed on receipts or bank statements for another month, as we complete the PBC set up process in Minnesota.

FunctionFlow isn’t a typical gym or squash club. We’re a community-powered model focused on access, not exclusivity—designed to bring the benefits of movement, focus, and connection to more people.

We're starting in Saint Paul, but the long-term vision is bigger: to grow a network of mission-aligned programs in other cities, each shaped by local needs but grounded in the same values. For now, we’re focused on getting it right in Saint Paul—and inviting people to help build something that can grow.
