FUNDING MODEL
100% of every dollar raised goes to end poverty.
Along with the $4.6 million raised and the $5 million
of additional available funds announced in June, more
than $10 million was made available to nonprofits to
end poverty in the region.
A grantmaking match of $800,000 each from the
J. J. Keller Foundation and U.S. Venture, $250,000
from Oshkosh Corporation, and $200,000 from both
ThedaCare and the Thrivent Foundation lead this effort.
STRATEGIES
Innovation is vital to solving an issue where
traditional approaches have resulted in individual
successes but little scalable outcomes to reduce
poverty.
Collaboration is key as poverty is a complex issue
with those in need requiring a multitude of services
provided by unique nonprofits.
The POINT Poverty Initiative equips nonprofits
with continuous improvement tools and initiates the
formation of action groups around strategies focused
on ending poverty.
Three area community foundations partner, invest,
manage and lead volunteer grant teams in awarding
funds to nonprofit collaborations.
Committed to funding innovative solutions to address the
root causes of poverty in Northeast Wisconsin.
