About this grant
The Keweenaw Community Foundation has been serving the Keweenaw and Houghton County communities of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula since 1994. In addition to its traditional grantmaking activities, the Keweenaw Community Foundation has, in recent years, expanded its role by helping to convene and facilitate multi-stakeholder discussions to address complex community issues. This includes leadership on the Keweenaw Heartlands project, which aims to sustainably manage thousands of acres of forested land at the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula for community benefit. With general purposes support, the Keweenaw Community Foundation will build its organizational capacity to continue to lead the Keweenaw Heartlands project and other initiatives that meet the needs of the communities it serves.
