    Blandin Foundation's vision is to help build healthy rural Minnesota communities. We view our work -- and that of our partners -- through the lens of three focus areas to identify efforts that move most effectively toward our vision.

    • Vibrant home communities where all dimensions of local communities are healthier. 
    • Skilled community leaders who recognize and capitalize on opportunities, strengthen diverse relationships, and motivate others to act to strengthen their community of place or interest.
    • Expanded rural opportunity through the blend of community economic development, active inclusion and education success.
