Mille Lacs Area Community Foundation

Through the work of local volunteers, the Mille Lacs Area Community Foundation supports the healthy growth of the communities and townships of the Mille Lacs watershed area while safeguarding and improving the area’s natural resources.

We serve the communities of Isle, Garrison, Onamia, Vineland and Wahkon and the Mille Lacs Band of the Ojibwe Reservation. We also serve the townships of Bay Lake, Eastside, Garrison, Hazelton, Isle Harbor, Kathio, Lakeside, Malmo, Roosevelt, South Harbor and Wealthwood. 

The MLACF invests in local nonprofits, schools and units of governments by awarding grants to create community impact.
