Ideal Applicant
A small-to-midsize Minnesota conservation, outdoor-activity, or youth sports club with local presence and clear community impact.
Good Fit
- • Organization is based in Minnesota (in-state).
- • Work focuses on conservation, outdoor activities, or youth shooting/archery teams.
- • Asks for modest one-time grants (roughly $1,000–$3,500).
- • Has an existing local reputation or connection to the club’s network.
- • Program aligns with community service or youth development in rural/metro-MN areas.
Geography
Observed giving is entirely in Minnesota across the two reported years, indicating a state-level footprint rather than multi-state or strictly hyper-local support.
Recipient Variety
In the latest year the foundation made 16 grants to 16 distinct recipients spanning local sports clubs, trap and archery teams, and conservation groups, showing a fairly broad set of independent beneficiaries for its size.
New Applicants
Behavior shows a mix of repeat and new grantees (12 returning and 4 new in 2023) and the foundation publishes application information, but it also declares that it funds only preselected recipients, suggesting new entrants are possible but likely via relationship or nomination.
