Stillwater area organizations—your work has the power to shape what comes next. Maybe it's a program that could reach more people. A project that could bring neighbors together. Or an idea that could make an everyday part of community life better.

The Great Idea Grant through the Stillwater Area Foundation (an affiliate of the St. Croix Valley Foundation) offers up to $10,000 to help turn those ideas into meaningful community impact.

Organizations serving Bayport, Bayport Township, Grant, Lake Elmo, Marine on St. Croix, May Township, Oak Park Heights, Stillwater, Stillwater Township, or West Lakeland Township are encouraged to apply.
