Each year, over 40 charitable agencies who are helping residents of Walworth County submit grant requests. Then, a panel of local experts in the fields of health, education and financial stability go through each application awarding funds to those charities which align with the goal.

Businesses offer payroll deduction campaigns, companies host creative fundraisers, schools run a "Day of Action" and collect spare change, and individuals send a check or go to our website and click the "Support Us" tab.
