2019 Community Report
One event.
Hundreds of golfers, partners and volunteers enjoy
an extraordinary event for a critical cause: ending
poverty. U.S. Venture pays all expenses of the event.
100% of donations go to ending poverty.
One unstoppable mission.
Nonprofits collaborate and submit grant
applications that address drivers of poverty. Grant
teams recommend funding for the most impactful
proposals in Northeast Wisconsin.
A grantmaking match of $800,000 from the
J. J. Keller Foundation, $250,000 from Oshkosh
Corporation, and $200,000 from both ThedaCare
and the Thrivent Foundation lead this effort.
A first-ever estate gift was received from David Thiede.
After your loved ones are taken care of, please
remember this impactful work as you plan your estate.
U.S. Venture relies on the expertise and knowledge
of area community foundations and their grant
teams to oversee and implement the granting
process and review.
