Request for Proposal
We are
seeking proposals for programs or projects that will address the needs of
senior citizens whose quality of life is being diminished due to mental or other
health related issues. We seek proposals that will provide opportunities for
them to incorporate the arts in their lives in meaningful ways.
For the
fourth consecutive year, the Learning by Giving Foundation has granted $10,000
to the University of Wisconsin Green Bay’s 2017 Strategic Philanthropy course.
This money will be awarded by students to an organization in Brown County.
Students have become involved in the philanthropic process as they identify an
issue in their community and strategically award the money to an organization
that will address the issue.
