ANNOUNCING


2007 Wisconsin Good Grant Award

Each year the Donors Forum of Wisconsin invites you to submit nominees for its annual Good Grant Award.  The award honors funders and grantees that have demonstrated leadership through a creative partnership by working together for the greater good.

For over twenty-eight years, the Donors Forum of Wisconsin has been an advocate and promoter of innovative efforts between funders and grantees to improve the lives of our citizens.  Funders as well as nonprofits have the common goal of contributing to a stronger community.  The Forum celebrates this commitment with the presentation of its Wisconsin Good Grant Award each year at the Statewide Conference on Philanthropy held in the spring.

This year's application deadline has been extended to September 7, 2007, with award notification on or before September 28, 2007.  Please see the Good Grant Award area of the website to download a copy, see the history of the grant, and additional information or contact Emmy Hall at the Donors Forum for a copy or additional information.
