Request for Proposals
We are excited to announce we have received the Building Better Lives Grant through Northwest Minnesota Foundation! This grant will assist us in a capacity-building project titled “Building Our Roots”.
The goal of the BOR project is to create leadership labs, toolkit(s), stronger governance policies, and a rural pride playbook of what we’ve learned in our 5+ years of organizing Pride events in rural Minnesota! This work will strengthen our organization while also creating resources that can benefit other rural communities.
​
We are currently seeking consultants to support this project and are hiring for one or both Request for Proposal (RFP) opportunities. Please view the buttons below for more information about each opportunity and how to apply.
