Ideal Applicant
A Wisconsin-based nonprofit or individual program aligned with scholarships, emergency assistance for frontline healthcare workers or seniors, or small local wish-celebration projects seeking modest, short-term support.
Good Fit
- • Project or individual qualifies for scholarships or emergency assistance tied to healthcare workers or seniors.
- • Clear local (Wisconsin) impact or residence.
- • Needs align with small-dollar awards (hundreds to low thousands).
- • Ability to be nominated or preselected, or to follow the published scholarship submission instructions (including letters of recommendation).
- • Willingness to accept a relationship-driven selection process rather than an open competitive grant round.
Geography
Observed granting is entirely to Wisconsin recipients in both available years; the footprint is state-level rather than national or purely city/county.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 11 distinct recipients in 2024 and 13 in 2023, including many individual scholarship recipients, small nonprofits, and occasional for-profit wish recipients, which indicates a relatively broad recipient set for a micro private foundation.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of turnover is strong (many new recipients in the latest year and no repeats across years), suggesting opportunities for new entrants, but the foundation also states it funds only preselected applicants; public scholarship instructions and a named email contact exist, so access appears possible primarily via nomination or the published submission route rather than open unsolicited applications.
