Summary
This opportunity offers support to organizations and community-focused groups working to strengthen local well-being in a specific region of the Midwest. The funding is designed for charitable efforts that improve daily life for residents and address a range of community needs. While the programs are primarily intended for nonprofit organizations, some cycles occasionally allow public agencies or other charitable entities to participate. The funding is not directed toward small businesses or individuals, but the programs ultimately aim to create benefits that reach people across the community.
Several types of assistance are available, each intended for different purposes. Some cycles focus on general community improvement and may provide awards that range from about $10,000 to more than $50,000, depending on the scale of the project and available resources. These funds are typically used for efforts such as maintaining community facilities, enhancing safety, supporting education, offering health programs, or developing cultural or environmental initiatives. Projects must take place within the same county in which the program operates, ensuring that all resources stay local.
Another form of support centers on local wellness and quality-of-life needs. These awards vary in size from year to year because they rely on pooled community contributions. They often prioritize programs that help strengthen families, promote access to basic necessities, encourage healthy lifestyles, and provide guidance or support to people in need. Awards can be distributed to multiple organizations at once when enough funds are collected.
A more youth-oriented program offers smaller awards, often between $500 and $2,000, to help expand opportunities for young people. These funds may support enrichment activities, accessibility improvements, arts involvement, school resources, or other services intended to help children and teens thrive. All programs require that funded activities directly benefit residents of the same geographic area, and applicants must meet basic charitable standards to qualify.
