At the Pittsville Library, Miranda Ortner and
Lindsey Winterhack enjoyed a reading enrichment program,
supported by community grant funds
through CFGSWC.

Grants from CF Community Grants Funds provide support to local nonprofit organizations and community groups involved in health and human services, education, arts and culture, community development, youth development, historic preservation, and recreation - to name just a few.

Grants from seven local Progress Funds provide support to residents or groups involved in unique community improvement projects consistent with the Community Progress Initiative.  Applications should be directed to your area's Progress Fund Committee, made up of local residents: Nekoosa Area, Pittsville Area, Port Edwards, Rome, Rudolph, Vesper Area, and Wisconsin Rapids Area.

School Plus grants provide support to teachers with innovative teaching projects in 4-year-old Kindergarten through Grade 12. 

Scholarships provide support to high school students seeking assistance for college tuition, high school tuition, and specific high school programs.  There are also scholarships for non-traditional students pursuing a college education, and scholarships for college students in their second year and higher.  

Your Community Foundation is committed to building a stronger region through effective grantmaking that supports collaboration, maximizing limited resources, strengthening nonprofit organizations, and monitoring change as it occurs for potential opportunities.
