Grantmaking

This funding is critical – without it we would only be able to accomplish a fraction of the wonderful things that Bird City Wisconsin has achieved.

The Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin supports the efforts of those working to protect our state’s natural resources through our grantmaking programs. We fund projects that have a deep impact on Wisconsin’s lands, waters, and wildlife, and that connect people of all ages to our state’s incredible natural resources.
