Geography
Observed granting is fully concentrated in Wisconsin, with multiple recipients located in Poynette and nearby towns in both 2023 and 2024.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 16 distinct recipients across municipal entities, schools, EMS, food pantry and community groups, and the foundation supported both new and returning organizations.
New Applicants
Behavior shows a substantial number of new grantees (15 new in 2023 and 7 new in 2024), and a practical submission route is recorded (named contact, mailing address and phone), so unfamiliar local applicants appear plausibly able to enter the portfolio.
