Please share this information.  Deadline for completion is end of day Thursday, May 3, 2018.  Completed forms may be emailed to [email protected].  If email isn't an option for you please contact me for alternative arrangements. 

 
Grant requests may be submitted for up to $5,000 and must align with the foundation's priorities of:
  • Community Improvement
  • Diversity
  • Wellness
  • Youth Development
We prefer to fund new/enhanced programs and partnerships or one-time projects.
The Marshall Community Foundation is one of over 20 community foundations established via partnership with the Southwest Initiative Foundation.  A local advisory board identifies needs in the community, grants dollars to local non-profits, and raises funds to grow the endowment.  Earnings from the foundation's endowment are used to fund grants offered twice per year.  MCF has granted over $130,000 since it's founding. 
Donations to MCF are always welcome.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Donations are accepted online via https://www.givemn.org/project/Marshall-Community-Foundation-Endowment-Fund.

The purpose of the Chamber E-Connection newsletter is to share our members' events with  other business and community members. It is an informational newsletter and helps to promote  our member businesses and their events.
Each Friday, our newsletter is sent to over 1,500 individuals. Our separate emails are sent to  the same list, but are held especially for our Chamber events and Business After Hours.

Newsletter Policy
E-Connection events are included based on requests from the member business. The following criteria are requested by the Marshall Area Chamber for event submissions:
  • Events flyers or submissions must be an actual event. We do not include sales or promotions.
  • Events can be included in the E-Connection for 2 weeks Free of charge, and you have the option of adding one additional week for $10. 3 weeks is the max per event.
  • Submissions must be sent the Wednesday prior to that Friday's
    E-Connection to be included to [email protected]
