The Meijer Foundation is giving $500,000 to support the Made in Michigan writers’ series, which was started by Wayne State University Press in 2006. Senior Acquisitions Editor Annie Martin says it’s the biggest grant the organization has ever gotten. The University Press will get the grant over five years. Martin says the bulk will go into an endowment fund so that it lasts for years.
