We’re excited to share that the Good Relatives Collaborative will be our fourth community-based grant partner, and will design and operate a community-based grant program supporting Native nations and communities across the area.
Leaders — in government, businesses and nonprofits — shape our institutions and our collective experiences. But, how do we know if they are representative of and responsive to the diverse communities that they employ and serve?
Please join us in celebrating Maggie Arzdorf-Schubbe as she transitions from her role at the Bush Foundation at the end of March. Maggie has been a trusted consultant to the Foundation for over 30 years and will truly be missed.
If we give 200 grants a year it means only one half of one percent of the nonprofits in our region could possibly get funding from the Bush Foundation. Who gets a shot at that funding?
Headwaters Foundation for Justice, South Dakota Community Foundation and Strengthen ND will serve as our partners to design and operate community-based grant programs.
NDN Collective and Nexus Community Partners will steward the $100 million community trust funds to address wealth disparities caused by historic racial injustice.
Addressing the accumulated impact of generations of unjust race-based policies requires intentional counter-intervention. It requires restoration. It requires repair.
We are excited to welcome six new colleagues to the Bush Foundation! They bring an incredible array of experiences and perspectives, along with a deep commitment to make our region better for everyone.
