Northeast Iowa Funders Network
For sustainable communities
The Northeast Iowa Funders Network was established to connect community foundations and other philanthropic organizations as they collaborate to leverage regional and national funding opportunities in northeast Iowa.
Goals of the Network:
- Learn more about the FFI initiative at the regional and community level
- Understand how each funder's goals fit with the initiative
- Collaborate to support regional policy-focused approaches to meeting initiative goals
- Support grant-making which reflects and leverages the work of the initiative
Membership:
The NEIFN is comprised of representatives from community foundations in the region, including Allamakee, Winneshiek, Howard, Chickasaw, Clayton, and Fayette as well as host foundation representatives in Waterloo and Dubuque.
