Our Housing First Minnesota Foundation has added a team member! Kristi Manning is the new Foundation project coordinator.
Kristi has a passion for philanthropy and partnerships and has worked in the non-profit sector since 2020. After working for two different arts and culture non-profits, Kristi is thrilled to be able to apply her skills and experience in her work with the Housing First Minnesota Foundation.
Though new to the housing industry, Kristi is ready for the challenges, learning, and growth that come with her new role. As Kristi’s personal values have always led her to organizations that work to make a difference in people’s lives through service and community, she is excited to work with foundation non-profit partners and association members on building projects that will have a long-term impact on ending homelessness in Minnesota.
Outside work, Kristi spends her time reading, trying new restaurants, breweries, and wine bars in the Twin Cities, and finding opportunities to play her flute. She also enjoys spending weekends at the cabin with her boyfriend, Tom — snowmobiling, paddleboarding, and taking long walks. You can often find her belting along to Taylor Swift in the car, traveling to New York to visit her sister and cousin, and browsing local boutiques and bookstores.
Please help us in welcoming Kristi to our Foundation staff!
