Minnesota grant programs can assist organizations and businesses in reaching their goals. These programs can be supported by many grantmaking agencies and community partners. To get started, you should review our information on applying for a Minnesota grant. You should also learn more about the Minnesota Community foundations.

Community partners are needed for grantees

Minnesota Community Partnership Grant Program supports community members and University researchers to form partnerships to support research on health equity topics. The program addresses state-specific health needs. This program facilitates community meetings and supports University researchers with writing research proposals. The University researchers can then adapt research instruments, tools, and interventions to the community context. Collaborations between universities and communities can lead to long-lasting partnerships.


Minnesota grantees might have community partners. These could include nonprofit organizations or government agencies. Many of these local organizations are also available. For example, the Central Minnesota Community Foundation focuses on funding local nonprofit organizations that serve individuals with disabilities. These organizations make use of their funds to form partnerships with service providers that provide services and equipment to individuals with disabilities. Minnesota grantees could also work with nonprofit organizations that support local women.
