Financial Assistance

Financial help during this pandemic is a much-needed resource for those in need.

These grants from the COVID-19 Community Response Fund are providing local nonprofit organizations the resources they need to directly impact residents from Calumet, Outagamie and the Neenah/Menasha area of Winnebago counties, most of whom have lost their jobs as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
