The effort or inclination to increase the well-being of humankind, as by charitable aid or donations The Wisconsin Foundation believes that philanthropy works best when donors and charities are empowered, encouraged and supported to reach their charitable goals. In our mind, philanthropy should not be about making a profit, but about ensuring that the most resources possible get into the hands of the organizations that provide the programs and services that better the community. To that end, we have created a one of a kind business model that not only helps donors and charities reach their goals, but allows them to do so at a more reasonable cost.
We accomplish this by combining a low fee, high service foundation with a low cost, high service consulting firm. Donors benefit because some Foundation costs are covered by the consulting services revenue. Charities benefit by working with a local, professional consulting firm that is just as concerned about the charities success as it is its own.
This website is designed to be an educational tool that will answer your questions about The Wisconsin Foundation and how our programs and services can increase your charitable impact. If you need additional information or would like to set up at time for a private consultation, please contact us.
