F. R. Bigelow Foundation stands as a pillar of community empowerment in the East Metro. As we look back on our journey, we also set our sights on an even brighter future.
A Long-term Vision
Our efforts are reflected in programs like the Central Corridors Funders Collaborative, which has brought transformative development to the East Metro area along the Green Line.
Similarly, the East Metro Main Street Economic Revitalization Program highlights our focus on revitalizing key areas, driving economic growth and enhancing the quality of life for all residents.
“The long-term vision for the East Metro is that it be a place where people of all incomes, all races, all ethnicities, can live good lives, have great places for their kids to go to school, have great places to work, live in housing they can afford that it just be a really supportive community,” says Board Member Mary Tingerthal.
Looking ahead, F. R. Bigelow Foundation remains dedicated to fostering a vibrant, inclusive and thriving Twin Cities East Metro region.
