Description
The Our Home State Capital & Reserve Grant Program is offered by the Saint Paul and Minnesota Foundation as part of its investment in community-led solutions. It provides multi-year support to organizations and programs that ensure access to affordable housing or housing stability, with eligible applicants located in the East Metro or Greater Minnesota.
The program is part of the Foundation’s new grant offerings beginning in 2026, following a community-informed redesign undertaken with F. R. Bigelow Foundation and Mardag Foundation. Its stated purpose centers on affordable housing access and stability. The Foundation lists Capital & Reserve separately from the Our Home State Ecosystem Grant Program, which focuses on systems change and direct service work to eliminate housing barriers.
