5 Things that set us apart...

1
We secure and invest more resources to fight poverty in
Rock & Walworth counties than any other not-for-profit organization.
Each year, we invest approximately $10 million in our communities. 

2
We are a 100% local and independent organization, with entirely
local leadership focused on our communities’ unique local challenges.
No national parent organization sets our agenda. 

3
The way we help people is by empowering them with opportunities
to help themselves; focusing on long-term benefits, not quick fixes.

4
We provide people and communities with solutions to a wide spectrum
of poverty problems, rather than focus on one single issue.
In total, we offer about 40 different programs.

5
By reducing poverty’s negative impacts, which affect us all,
we make our community a better place to live for every person in it.
