Asian Economic Development Association funding provided for outdoor programs for youth, and money appropriated.

HF 2540 appropriates $250,000 from Minnesota's arts and cultural heritage fund for fiscal year 2026 to support youth outdoor programs. The funds are directed to the Asian Economic Development Association (AEDA) through a grant administered by the Minnesota Humanities Center Board. This bill directly affects AEDA, which will use the funding to provide outdoor activities for young people in the community. The legislation is a straightforward funding allocation with no new requirements or regulations for the recipient organization.
