Facing Race Awards

Our annual Facing Race Awards celebrate Minnesotans working to create a racially equitable community.

Through these community-nominated Awards, we celebrate and learn from those leading the way forward.

Investments

A sound investment strategy is crucial in our work to create an equitable and just Minnesota where all communities and people thrive.

Our Investments team seeks to realize strong returns while aligning with our values and minimizing volatility, ensuring that the Foundation and our donors are able to support community-led solutions for years to come.
