Description
The Fox Cares Foundation Fund, administered by the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region, provides grants to nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations operating in counties served by Fox Communities Credit Union (Brown, Calumet, Kewaunee, Manitowoc, Outagamie, Waupaca, and Winnebago). The fund prioritizes programs addressing homelessness (emergency shelters, transitional housing, and related support), hunger and food insecurity (particularly innovative solutions and culturally specific foods, but generally not pantries supported by Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin), and the arts (especially projects increasing access for under-represented groups or youth, or building community through the arts).
