2026 Southwest WI Seed Money Funding

 

We are delighted to announce that we are offering Seed Money funding in Southwest Wisconsin in 2026 in this, our 8th year of offering this initiative. Our 2025 recipients and our board members left our Seeds of Hope Celebration in November expressing how renewed, energized and inspired they were by the presentations the recipients made and by the passion with which they carry out their work. We are looking forward to celebrating with you and the other recipients at our 2026 Seeds of Hope Celebration next fall. 

To that end, we invite you to apply for Seed Money in 2026. The maximum amount of funding per project is $1500; the deadline for applications is Friday, January 30, 2026; and awardees will be notified of the results of our review by Friday, February 27, 2026.

To help you determine if you should apply, more details can be found in the tabs below. There you will find two downloadable WORD documents. Please review the Grant Information Document first to see the criteria we will use in evaluating the applications, along with other details. Then complete the Grant Application Form.
