General Service Foundation (Saint Paul, Minn.).

The foundation was established on June 1, 1946. It was endowed by lumberman Clifton R. Musser (1869-1956) and his wife Margaret Kulp Musser (1875-1967) of Muscatine, Iowa. Its principal office was moved from St. Paul to Boulder, Colorado in 1985.

The General Service Foundation contributed to organizations and projects concerned with population control, private higher education, the environment, and the conservation of natural resources. It also made major contributions in the areas of religion and international, industrial, and race relations, many involving projects in Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean area. The foundation preferred to support new, experimental, demonstration, or research projects. It generally did not make grants to individuals or for operating budgets, endowment funds, annual campaigns, capital purposes, or for relief.
