We partnered with the Bush Foundation on the search for a Grantmaking Director of the Bush Fellowship Program. The Bush Foundation invests in great ideas and the people who power them in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and the 23 Native nations that share this geography in order to inspire and support creative problem-solving within and across sectors.
