Community Funds
"What a man does for himself, dies with him.
What he does for his community, lives long after he is gone." 
                                 ....Theodore Roosevelt


A Community Fund allows individuals and groups to contribute time and money toward the betterment of a specific community. Each fund has a volunteer advisory board composed of community members.  Each advisory board encourages the growth of the fund and oversees distributions in the form of grants based on community projects, programs and other changing needs.

The Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin is the home of 15 component community funds across seven counties:
