The Kresge Foundation works to expand equity and opportunities in America’s cities by investing in arts and culture, education, environment, health, human services and place- based development. The panel at Fresno State was part of a two-day visit to Fresno by board members, from March 5 to 6.
The foundation’s work and funding focuses on communities and cities — primarily in Michigan, California, Tennessee and Louisiana — to improve systems and advance equitable policies nationwide. Fresno is one of several cities the foundation works closely with.
