Who is Midwest Partners?

Midwest Partners is a non-profit, tax-exempt (501(c)3) organization founded in Princeton, IL in 2015. It promotes collaborative civil engagement on issues ranging from Main Street revitalization to growing local food, and supporting community and environmental health, public arts, regional economic development, and services for children, youth, and adults of all ages.

Midwest Partners has helped create projects that have had an impact throughout Bureau County and the surrounding Starved Rock Country region.  Sometimes even further away than that.
