The Catalyst Initiative of the Minneapolis Foundation and Marnita’s Table invite you to join us on Wednesday, April 25^th from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for the 2018 Seed Grantee Convening honoring and expanding the work of all of Catalyst’s seed grant recipients over the past three years. Please plan to be with us as we lift up the great work that was begun by the George Family Foundation, and celebrate the passing of the torch to our new home at the Minneapolis Foundation, where we seek to widen the scope and impact of our work through fostering new relationships and enduring connections in integrative health and wellbeing.

If you are a current or past seed grantee, we ask that you prepare a 5-minute description/summary of your program and project and be ready to share with the group. This can take the format of a poster or laptop slideshow. We look forward to welcoming you.

About the Catalyst Initiative of the Minneapolis Foundation:

Catalyst is a field of interest fund of the Minneapolis Foundation designed to build integrative health and healing in Minnesota for a healthier population. Catalyst provides training and technical assistance, hosts convenings, connects for impact, and provides small, short-term seed grants to reach our goal of a healthier Minnesota.

Our Mission: to make Minnesota the healthiest state by improving overall health and wellbeing through proactive means, by empowering people and communities to incorporate meaningful lifestyle changes for maximum wellbeing, and promote widespread access to integrative healing modalities.

Our Vision: To transform the consciousness of Minnesotans about their health and wellbeing to a) enable self-care to become true primary care; b) lead to an understanding of the connectedness of mind, body, and spirit and the immense self-healing capacity of human beings; and c) build acceptance that the best medicine combines proven medical treatments with a full range of healing modalities.
