As the WGC Fund grows, so will the amount available for grant awards. Those who contribute to the WGC Fund also have the opportunity to volunteer to serve on the grant review committee. The grant review committee reviews all grant applications and makes recommendations to the Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan's Board of Directors. All grants awards must be approved by the Board of Directors before being finalized.
2020 grants are listed below, and a full list of WGC grant awards can be found HERE.
