South Shore Community Fund

South Shore Community Fund — For Good. Forever.
The South Shore Community Fund is a permanent endowment dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in our local communities through grants to area nonprofit organizations.

When you give to South Shore, you’re investing in the future of our region. We support local projects that strengthen communities from Ashland, Washburn, and Bayfield to Madeline Island and the tribal lands of the Red Cliff and Bad River Nations. Every gift matters—because when our community thrives, we all thrive.

Since 2000, the Fund has awarded more than $1 million in grants to local nonprofits, investing over $170,000 annually to improve life across the South Shore. Gifts to the Fund create a lasting legacy that benefits our community—forever.
(formerly known as the Apostle Islands & Chequamegon Bay Area Community Fund)
