Grantmaking

Community foundations are often known first and foremost as grantmakers. Providing support to great causes is a crucial part of how we help transformation happen thanks to the generosity of donors.

Our grantmaking and community initiatives team shapes grant opportunities that award dollars to nonprofit organizations addressing the most pressing needs and promising opportunities in the Quad Cities region – all while carrying out the intent of donors that made the grants possible. We also connect people and champion opportunities that no one person or organization can pursue on their own.
