Community-based internship grants to Minnesota communities are a cornerstone of the Foundation’s mission.
Each year, the Foundation awards one thousand dollar ($1,000) grants to EDAM Members to cover a portion of the cost to employ an intern that will focus principally on economic development-related work.
The 2023 application period ended on February 24, 2023.
