Minnesota Rural Partners is a nonprofit organization. Donations to MRP are tax deductible. We receive no state or federal funding.

For 10 years, MRP has supported rural communities and the rural economy by focusing on developing four basic, yet essential, community cornerstones:

1. Access to Financial Capital
2. Healthcare
3. Creative Capital (Education and Culture)
4. Community Design

With your help we are hoping to continue our support.

Towards that end we have create online tools to support local businesses:

• Finance Avenue
• Rural Policy Forum

We have hosted, coordinated, or collaborated on the following conferences (in 2005 alone):

• 2005 Rural Summit
