Merger of Two SLP Foundations Good for Local Kids

Park Public Schools & Community Foundation was formed in 2020, out of a merger between the St. Louis Park Public Schools Foundation and the St. Louis Park Community & Youth Fund. Ingrid Culp and Lisa Stein were appointed Co-Chairs of the new board.

"The merger of the two foundations could not have come at a better time. As one Foundation, we will be better positioned to support the needs of children in St. Louis Park, both during and outside of the school day. The merger creates opportunities for increased impact at a time when children, parents, teachers and the community have great needs," said Stein.

The new Foundation will fund efforts to enhance student achievement and opportunities in the St. Louis Park public schools and to enrich community programs for youth through grants to local nonprofits. Examples of past grants can be found online at https://www.slppscf.org/how-we-help.html
