Mission & Philosophy

 

Mission

 

The mission of the Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin is to help make the counties of Portage and Waushara better places in which to grow, to work, to play and to retire - by helping people, enhancing education, enriching arts and culture, contributing to wellness and improving the environment through financial management of gifts and grants from organizations and individuals.

 

 

Philosophy

 

We believe that we must protect, nurture, and nourish the uniqueness of the Central Wisconsin area. The diversity of its race and culture, the richness of its artistic expression and appreciation, and the beauty and quality of its natural resources so that all may enjoy a quality of life both now and in the future.

 

 

Commitments

 

We are committed to human and community development, wise and thoughtful distribution of our resources, and prudent investment of the funds entrusted to us.

 

We serve as a neutral, nonpartisan third party civic leader to examine and determine community needs and facilitate development of solutions to community problems.
