Our Mission

Our mission is to provide funding to Racine County’s hard-working nonprofit organizations by stewarding our endowment to sustain this support for generations.

Over the last several decades, we’ve increased our endowment to over $80 million and are now able to award over $3.5 million in grants every year to local nonprofits. Because our funds are endowed, we are able to make these gifts and rarely take money from the principal. Following this prudent model, we’ll be able to continue providing much needed funding to Racine County’s nonprofits and students forever.
