High Foundation is giving the largest grant it has ever given to a community project, Executive Director Robin Stauffer said.
“We committed $2.5 million to the project, in the quiet phase of the campaign,” Stauffer said. “This project is important to the message of inclusion and belonging for everybody, and the importance of diversity,” Stauffer said. “And I think even in some ways, the economic vitality of the city will benefit as a result of this museum and this storytelling. And so, in our minds, it checks a lot of those boxes and impacts a lot of the areas that are important to the High Foundation.”
