INITIATIVES & PROGRAMS


In addition to awarding grants, the Community Foundation supports special initiatives that address local challenges and encourage smart philanthropy. All of our projects are developed in direct response to needs identified in Dunn County.

The Women's Giving Circle

The Women’s Giving Circle of Dunn County is a community of philanthropic women who combine their financial resources to support local women and girls in need. They do this through grantmaking, community building, engagement and education, and building the power of philanthropy throughout Dunn County.

Home Sweet Menomonie

Home Sweet Menomonie combines public, employer and private contributions to create a no-interest, partly forgivable loan for down payment assistance to employees of participating businesses who wish to own homes within the City of Menomonie.
