The Otto Bremer Trust is putting its money where its mouth is.

The private charitable trust, which was created in 1944 to support residents of Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, and Wisconsin, has announced that it will be awarding $400,000 in grants to area nonprofits through its new Community Responsive Fund, the St.

Paul Pioneer Press reports.

The money will be awarded between $10,000 and $75,000 to support "basic needs, health and well-being, restorative and responsive services, and bringing stability to individuals and families facing disruptive forces in life," according to a press release.

The grants will be awarded through the Southwest Initiative Foundation, which "will serve as a local expert to ensure the Otto Bremer Trust is increasing the positive impact in the regions it serves by providing guidance on and awarding grants from OBT directly to organizations in southwest Minnesota that provide effective services and programs," the release says.

Interested parties can go to swifoundation.org to see if their organization is eligible.
