City of Milwaukee Department of City Development (DCD) Grant Writing Tips

The Greater Milwaukee Foundation Distributed $96.9 Million in 2025 — Its Largest Annual Total in 110 Years. The Federal Retreat Is Reshaping What Community Foundations Are Being Asked to Be, and the Milwaukee Numbers Are the Clearest Early Indicator.
