Winneshiek County Grants

Grants are available to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations and government entities. Tax-exempt organizations classified as other than 501(c)(3) are also eligible, if and only if, the project is deemed charitable; please contact our office to discuss the project’s eligibility prior to submitting a proposal. Grants selections are made in an effort to create a better quality of life for people in Winneshiek County. A local committee reviews the applications from charitable organizations serving their community.

Those interested in applying can watch the recording of our 2024 Grant Cycle Workshop by clicking the button below. You can also view the slides from that presentation here.
