Internships

Community-based internship grants to Minnesota communities are a cornerstone of the Foundation’s mission.

Each year, the Foundation awards two-thousand dollar ($2,000) grants to EDAM Members to cover a portion of the cost to employ an intern that will focus principally on economic development-related work.

Applications will be accepted through the end of the business day on Friday, November 15, 2024. Recipients will be notified by no later than December 6, 2024.
