Ideal Applicant
A local or regional nonprofit operating in communities where Andersen employees live and work—especially in Minnesota—focused on housing, hunger relief, health, education, or youth development with projects or operating needs sized to typical grants ($5K–$100K).
Good Fit
- • Located in Minnesota or a community with an Andersen presence
- • Work in affordable housing, food/hunger relief, health services, education, or youth programs
- • Requesting general operating support or project funding in the foundation's typical grant size range
- • Clear local impact and opportunities for employee engagement or community partnership
- • Able to apply during the March or August application windows via the online portal
Geography
Grants reached recipients in 10 states, but giving is heavily concentrated in Minnesota, which received about 78% of the dollars and roughly 62% of grant counts.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows a broad recipient set—156 grants to 144 distinct organizations across multiple sectors—indicating a wide and diverse portfolio for that year.
New Applicants
A clear public application process is posted (guidelines, downloadable forms, online portal, email contact, and two annual application windows), so unfamiliar organizations appear able to apply; however, only one year of history is available so long-term turnover cannot be assessed.
