Community Foundation of Dunn County
People who care. Causes that matter. Since 1995.
The Community Foundation of Dunn County is excited to announce a new fund that helps the School District of the Menomonie Area (SDMA) families alleviate meal debt.
The SDMA does not turn children away from being fed at school. Despite other meal assistance programs, families in the SDMA are currently facing thousands of dollars of meal debt. The Angel Fund provides assistance to families struggling with meal debt. Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly to a family that needs assistance.

🌟The Community Foundation of Dunn County is excited to support an initiative to develop a Hispanic Heritage/Latino Cultural Trunk, filled with realia, artifacts, and educational materials. This resource aims to empower EL students by connecting them with their cultural heritage and will be available district-wide, allowing teachers to enrich their curricula with lessons on Hispanic and Latino cultures. 🌟
With a successful Hmong Heritage Trunk already in use, this new Cultural Trunk will help celebrate the growing diversity in our schools, providing meaningful learning experiences that foster understanding and inclusivity across the district.
