Community-led Solutions
One of our core values is that the community is our compass. We are honored to invest in and partner with the agents and agencies of change who are working daily to address our most pressing issues.
Grantmaking
The Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation has a variety of grant programs for organizations serving the East Metro and beyond.
Review our grant opportunities to identify which one might be a fit for your organization and view grant guidelines. Before you apply for a grant, we encourage you to view grant resources, key dates and materials for grant applicants and grant recipients.
Throughout 2024 and 2025, we will go through a community-informed process to redesign our twice-yearly Building Community Capacity grant program. View our grant redesign hub for the latest information.
Nonprofit
Funds & Services
Nonprofit endowment funds channel charitable gifts into a single investment fund that builds over time and provides organizations with a reliable source of annual income — now and in the future. The Foundation’s expert team provides professional management of endowments to ensure the longevity of your organization and offers educational materials like our nonprofit toolkit. We proudly serve more than 200 organizations across the state.
Resources
Beyond
the Grant
