Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan Board

Anne Marlowe Belanger (pictured) of Rogers City, is CFNEM's Current President. Anne has served on our board since 2020, and has been an active member of our Grant Screening Committee.

“It is a privilege to serve as President of the CFNEM board of directors. Working alongside a dedicated board and staff has allowed me to engage with communities and organizations across our nine-county region, all united by a shared commitment to strengthening our communities. With diverse skillsets and life experiences, we collectively work together to address the needs of our communities and continue to build funding resources through our Legacy Society," says Anne.

She adds that through her six years on the Grant Screening Committee, she has seen firsthand how CFNEM's funding strengthens its communities, supporting health, human services, education, the arts, animals, the environment, and more.

"With the continued support of donors, partners, and volunteers, we are building stronger, more resilient communities—together. I’m grateful to be part of this important work.”

Anne is the Director of Programming at the Presque Isle District Library. She is also a multi Emmy award-winning producer/owner of Bon Ami filmworks, LLC; past president of the Michigan Humanities and Besser Museum of Northeast Michigan; and was appointed by Governor Snyder and Governor Whitmer to serve on the Michigan Arts and Culture Council.
