Originally from Warroad, MN, Becca Baumbach graduated from the University of North Dakota with her Bachelors in Psychology and Masters in Educational Leadership. At the age of 23, she was elected as the youngest member of the Grand Forks School Board, serving from 2010 to 2015.

Becca is known for her passion and expertise within the nonprofit sector, beginning at the ND Museum of Art and the Empire Arts Center and refined through opportunities in New York City and St. Paul. Finding her way “back home” in 2017, Becca serves as Executive Director of the Community Foundation of Grand Forks, East Grand Forks & Region, providing strategic leadership, fund development, and investment oversight of the $16 million foundation.

Apart from her professional work, Becca’s impact is also evident in her involvements as a founding board member of the GGF Women’s Leadership Cooperative, founding organizer of TEDxGrandForks, board member of the Empire Arts Center and North Dakota Association of Nonprofit Organizations (NDANO), and co-organizer of the Main Street GF: Longest Table. She was named one of Prairie Business Magazine’s 40-Under-40 winners in 2018, Young Professional of the Year by the Greater Grand Forks Young Professionals in 2012, and Emerging Leader Award recipient by the North Dakota Association of Nonprofit Organizations in 2021.

In her spare time, Becca enjoys country life on a hobby farm near Cummings, ND with her husband, Wayne, and their daughters, Juniper and Flora.
