Supporting Communities

Knife River is an integral part of each community it serves with quality products and services. Our 5,000 employees, living in 14 states, are active in non-profit organizations, community events, city and county councils, schools and churches. Knife River is proud of its employees’ efforts and proud to be helping build stronger communities.

Knife River’s parent company, MDU Resources Group, awards thousands of dollars within Knife River’s communities through the MDU Resources Foundation. If you are a non-profit organization and would like to apply for Foundation funds, read more about the necessary steps and qualifications.
