The Platteville Community Fund is a component of the Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin, a tax-exempt public charity.  The monies for the spring grant cycle, more than $30,000 in 2016, are available as a result of legacy gifts provided through the estates of Clarence Gribble, Elinore Loveland, Margaret Keizer and Robert and Marjorie Hartshorn.  

In reviewing applications, the grants committee looks at the scope and potential impact of projects to address needs within the Platteville community.
