For 60 years, the Consolidated Communications Community Fund has given more than $6.5 million to non-profit organizations throughout southern Minnesota, with a focus on programs that enhance educational opportunities and provide critical community services.
The Community Fund is a donor-advised fund, administered through the Mankato Area Foundation. An advisory board comprised of current, local Consolidated Communications employees directs grants and gifts from the Community Fund.
In 2023, the Consolidated Communications Community Fund awarded 24 grants totaling $155,000.
Grants are awarded on an annual basis, with our fiscal year beginning in March. All grant requests must be received by Dec. 1, 2023 for consideration in the next fiscal year. View the Community Fund Grant Guidelines.
