About Us
West Central Initiative
Through philanthropy and planning, the West Central Initiative fuels insight and action for the benefit of the region and the world. Along the way, the foundation understands its progress through two lenses: the Minnesota Association of Development Organizations (MADO) DevelopMN Cornerstones and the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Both lenses focus in on what a region and community needs to accomplish to become strong and resilient for generations to come.
