The grant recipients
As part of this $1.17 million, the Foundation approved $100,000 in a multi-year commitment to support Solid Ground’s Building Strong Foundations campaign.

Campaign funds will be focused on three pillars, renovations at their East Metro Place location, affordable housing and for capital reserves.
About the foundation
The Andersen Corporate Foundation was established in 1941 with the mission to improve lives and strengthen communities where Andersen employees live and work. Since then, the Foundation has donated over $70 million to worthy causes in the areas of housing, health, hunger relief and education.
As part of each grant round, the Foundation works with employee committees at multiple locations across the U.S., enabling Andersen’s local teams to make the impact they feel is most impactful in their community.
