Blandin Foundation Leaders Share Experiences

Jim Hoolihan, President of the Minnesota-based Blandin Foundation and Bernadine Joselyn, Blandin’s Director, Public Policy & Engagement, met with the Endowment’s Board of Directors at its recent meeting in Minneapolis.  “We took advantage of our Minnesota visit to hear and learn from one of the most successful foundations in America…and we learned a great deal,” said Carlton Owen, President of the Endowment.  Blandin, with more than four-decades of experience, focuses its resources on three programmatic areas of activity – grants, community leadership development and public policy.
