The Minnesota Council on Foundations is a Minnesota-based nonprofit organization that functions as a regional membership association for grantmakers. It unites family and private foundations, community and other public foundations, and corporate foundations and giving programs to strengthen and expand philanthropy and improve community vitality and health. Historically, it has pursued collaborative initiatives such as MI3, an early impact-investing effort launched in 2017 by Minnesota foundations in partnership with RBC GAM. In late 2024, the council announced its slate of 2025 board applicants for its Annual Meeting of Members. These activities illustrate its role as a facilitator of philanthropy and governance within the Minnesota philanthropic landscape.
