Grant Overview

Emerging Trends in Community Development & Services Funding The Childhood Poverty Program, funded by the Banking Institution, is transforming the landscape of community development and services in Milwaukee. As a key player in this sector, understanding the current trends is crucial for non-profit organizations to stay ahead and effectively utilize the grant funds ranging from $1 to $1 million. One significant trend is the increased focus on community development block grant (CDBG) initiatives. The CDBG program, a primary source of funding for community development projects, is witnessing a shift towards more targeted and outcome-driven allocations. This change is largely driven by the need for more effective use of funds in addressing poverty and related issues in Milwaukee's communities.
