It’s always an exciting time to reflect back on the hard work that’s been accomplished in the previous year, especially when talking about new funds established.

Although 2022 proved to be a difficult year financially, the generosity of our community has been steadfast. In 2022 we started 19 new funds at La Crosse Community Foundation and these funds will positively impact our community, forever.

Check out all of the new funds started in 2022 below!
