Description
The Violet and Ruben Laack Memorial Fund is administered by the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region. Established in 2014, it supports educational, library, speech, forensics and theater programs in the Chilton area. Its grantmaking serves six communities: Brillion, Chilton, Hilbert, Kiel, New Holstein and Stockbridge.
Grant awards rotate annually among library, speech, forensics and theater interests, rather than supporting every interest area each year. The designated focus for 2026 was library programs. Applicants should review the program page for the applicable cycle’s focus before preparing a request. The fund’s purpose is support for these local program interests, rather than a broader range of charitable activities.
