Our own Jen Ford Reedy, president of the Foundation, was recently invited to share a stage with others talking about philanthropy’s role in systems change at the Aspen Ideas Festival in late June.
We’re so excited to introduce you to this year’s class of Bush Fellows. They’re a remarkable group of committed leaders who have big dreams for their communities.
Every year we are humbled by the incredible talent and brilliance of our neighbors in the region, and this year is no different. I’m immensely grateful for the opportunity to introduce you to our 2022 class of Bush Fellows.
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.
At the Bush Foundation, part of our commitment to equity is in having open processes. To us, that means making sure our funding opportunities are publicly shared and that anyone who believes they are a fit has a chance to apply.
Headwaters Foundation for Justice, South Dakota Community Foundation and Strengthen ND will serve as our partners to design and operate community-based grant programs.
