Recent giving reached Minnesota.

Their most recent 990-PF reported program-related investments: money moved as loans, guarantees, or equity rather than grants. That is one filing year rather than a standing program, and it is rare, roughly one foundation in seventy-four on this site. It is also one of the few routes foundation money reaches a company.
