McKnight Foundation is proud to share five stories—from Alanna, Marnese, Rick, Sarah, and Casey—representing just a few of the voices shaping climate and energy solutions in the Midwest. Their journeys reflect the winding paths people often take to leadership. These narratives go beyond bios to reveal the personal “why” at the heart of the work.
