Chisholm Beautification Association

Chisholm Beautification Association Non-profit, organization with the goal of making Chisholm a better place to live. at the Chisholm Community Foundation Office. Guests are welcome.

In 2005, we formed a non-profit, 501(c)(3), new organization with the goal of making Chisholm a better place to live. We have undertaken many projects including coordinating a citywide clean up, restoration of the curling club and the exterior of the garment factory, planted trees downtown, placed welcoming signage on all city entrances and annually paint homes of needy citizens. These projects we

re funded by grants and volunteer labor.

NOTE: Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month at
4:00 P.M. Chisholm Beautification Association members are individuals who volunteer and devote their time to assess the needs of the City, relative to our mission, prioritize needs and put in the effort to โ€œmake things happenโ€. There has never been a group such as the CBA, with imagination and vigor that has been a watchdog on keeping our city beautiful with projects that set us apart from the other communities. View our projects pages and see the many improvements that have been made to combat community deterioration.


โ€œComing together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.โ€ ~ Henry Ford


CBA projects are funded by donations from the community and grants. We appreciate the ongoing support and grants from the Chisholm Community Foundation, City of Chisholm, Valspar & Northland Foundation's MN Beautiful Program and donations received from interested citizens. Most grants require matching funds, and your continuing support is greatly appreciated. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation, please mail to:
