MLEF Launches Planned Giving & Endowment Campaign

The Extra newspaper recently highlighted MLEF's new planned giving and endowment campaign. Nancy Edmonds Hanson writes, "When Moorhead students and teachers need a helping hand, the Moorhead Legacy Education Foundation is there for them. Whether it’s an educator needing support for an innovative STEM project or youngsters whose families have come up short on providing essential supplies, the organization directed by faithful local supporters of education stands ready to lend a helping hand.
But there’s a limit to what even year-round fund-raising can achieve, says executive director, Janelle Leiseth. That’s why Legacy is looking to the public for long-term gifts – gifts that will become their donors’ legacies as well.
“We’re seeking both planned gifts and outright donations to build a secure foundation for the future,” Janelle says. “That has already been built for Spuds Scholars, which has been awarding scholarships to graduating seniors since 1990. Now we need to build the same reserves for Spud Impact grants.”"
