01What it does

What Mpma Education Foundation does

Mission

The organization's mission is to promote the education of students interested in precision manufacturing. The minnesota precision manufacturing association's education foundation was formed to address the shortage of people entering the manufacturing field by supporting students, school technical programs, and educational institutions. Two of the main initiatives include: scholarship and education funding.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.

Program

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
