Grants from local Progress Funds

In conjunction with the Community Progress Initiative, Com munity Foundation of Greater South Wood County (CF) offers seven Progress Funds, one each for:  Nekoosa Area;  Pittsville Area;  Port Edwards;  Rome;  Rudolph;  Vesper Area; and the Wisconsin Rapids Area.  

Local groups may apply for grants by contacting their area's Fund committee which is comprised of local
residents. Application forms are posted below.                                                                              

Rudolph's annual Country Christmas is supported by the Rudolph Community Fund.

The CF encourages local residents and groups to think creatively about ways to improve their own communities and help their vision become a reality. Residents and other interested donors may contribute to their local Progress Fund at any time; your contribution will help build your local endowment for future grant-making.
