MCN and MCF Launch Coffee with Commissioner Series
St. Paul, Minn., March 23, 2011 -- The Minnesota Council of Nonprofits and the Minnesota Council on Foundations, with support from the Minneapolis Foundation, is pleased to offer a highly interactive and informative series, “Coffee with Commissioners.” Each month we’ll highlight a 
different state agency that interacts with nonprofits and the philanthropic community in Minnesota.
Join us Thursday mornings for coffee and conversation. Each Commissioner will present for 30 – 45 minutes, followed by a discussion with the audience, including a Q & A component.
