Indigenous Parent Leadership Initiative celebrates graduation of inaugural class at White Earth Nation

When teachers are away from the classrooms in the summer, their children frequently stay home with them.

Landlord Risk Mitigation Fund expands options for young adults hardest to house

The Thief River Falls Area Community Fund has expressed its appreciation to its community for its support this summer.

The impact of the latest grant round of the Bemidji Area Arts Endowment could be clearly heard this week in downtown Bemidji.

An assessment was recently completed on a former nursing home/youth center in Baudette, as the community there had thoughts of potential reuse for multi-family housing.

It’s here! The All School Reunion weekend in Bemidji is happening now, through this weekend, from which a proceeds of the event will benefit the Bemidji 31 Education Foundation, a component fund of the Northwest Minnesota Foundation, and go toward its $20,000 matching grant from the George W. Neilson Foundation.

For July’s Board of Directors meetings, our staff and board traveled to Hallock, where we met at Far North Spirits, toured Revelation Ale Works, and had the chance to visit with local community members.

Early grant support from the Thief River Falls Area Community Fund helped spur efforts to bring a program that builds self-esteem in adolescent girls to the local community.
