The mission of the MNWT Foundation is to support the programs of the Minnesota Women of Today by developing financial and non-financial resources, and to provide appropriate oversight and distribution of funds raised. The MNWT Foundation is not a committee of the Minnesota Women of Today but a separate 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. It was established in 1983 to support the projects and programs of the MNWT. The purpose of the foundation is to raise and distribute funds to help further the educational, training and fundraising projects of the organization. The Foundation is working for your chapter and its members — Support of the MNWT Foundation can be made by donating during the Give to the Max Day or becoming a sustaining member. All donations to the MNWT Foundation are tax-deductible. The MNWT Foundation is a member of the Minnesota Council of NonProfits.
