In this edition of Follow the Money, we take a look at Detroit's Kresge Foundation. As shown in this Google doc, I have documented a number of recent grants to Minnesota non-profits around energy issues.
The Kresge Foundation was founded in 1924 by Detroit's Sebastian Spering Kresge, the founder of Kmart, for the “promotion of human progress.” Oops.
The Foundation is now run by Minnesota's Rip Rapson, formerly head of the McKnight Foundation of Minneapolis.
