The mission focuses on addressing community needs across Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska, and Leelanau counties. Through a variety of endowments, they aim to support philanthropic approaches to meeting basic needs, promoting self-sufficiency, and helping individuals achieve independence across these regions.
The grant program focuses on nutrition and obesity issues, particularly in school-aged children. It accepts applications annually each Fall, giving priority to creative, evidence-based proposals linked with MSUE Resources.

It supports programs aligned with the values of Home Economics, now known as Family and Consumer Sciences, covering a wide range of expertise such as safe food handling, nutrition, parenting skills, household management, consumer buying, and leadership skills.
