UW-Green Bay philanthropy class announces $21,000 in grants | WLUK

GREEN BAY (WLUK) — A philanthropy class at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay has chosen a few area non-profit organizations as recipients of $21,000 in grants. After conducting community research in the area, the UW-Green Bay students decided to choose organizations that work with at-risk youth in areas that address mental health. The students recognized that there will be an increased need since many are going through a traumatic time due to the coronavirus.“How often does a student get to give away a grant? We’re usually the ones being interviewed, not doing the interviews,” said student Leslie Lee. “I learned that organizations are working hard at adapting to the safer-at-home order and contributing in their own way to the needs of the people they serve.” Source: UW-Green Bay philanthropy class announces $21,000 in grants | WLUK
