Funding & Partnership Opportunities

Sourcewell strategically reinvests in the communities we serve. For public agencies in Minnesota's Cass, Crow Wing, Morrison, Todd, and Wadena counties, Sourcewell offers funding opportunities to help promote new ideas or methods, encourage positive change, and inspire innovation and collaboration.

Innovation Funding

Sometimes great ideas just need money. Our goal is to financially jump-start under-funded, innovative projects to help them get off the ground and reach a successful outcome. Regional representatives select which projects to fund based on their potential positive impact in the community.

Small Project Partnerships

Have a new idea? We can help. The Small Project Partnership fund supports smaller projects that may not meet the traditional Innovation Funding requirements. Sourcewell will match 50% of the project costs up to $2,500.

Cooperative Purchasing Rebate

The rebate program is another way we strategically reinvest in our community. When a member in our five-county service area makes a purchase using a Sourcewell cooperative contract, Sourcewell will rebate 1% cash back. Members receive their rebate cash payout automatically every fall.
