    About Wheda Foundation

    Wheda Foundation Inc gives through a Wisconsin housing system that mixes direct grants with competitive loan programs for workforce housing, senior housing, and conversions of existing buildings. Its housing grant cycle supports nonprofit work in Wisconsin, while separate loan programs finance vacant commercial-to-housing projects, Main Street rehabilitation, and infrastructure tied to housing development. Recent grants show a strong emphasis on emergency and transitional housing as well as permanent supportive housing. In the recent grant list, HALO Inc in Racine received $50,000 for Emergency/Transitional work, and NeighborWorks Green Bay received $50,000 for Permanent housing support. The foundation also backed Pathfinders Milwaukee Inc with $50,000 for Emergency/Transitional services and Revitalize Milwaukee Inc with $50,000 for Permanent housing work. Across these awards, the pattern is tied to housing stability, community development, and practical improvements that help projects function in Wisconsin neighborhoods. The grantmaking is local in scope and centered on recipients throughout the state, with housing-related nonprofit organizations appearing repeatedly across the recent record.

    What Wheda Foundation Funds

    Affordable housing appears across both grant and loan activity. Under the WHEDA Foundation Housing Grant Program, the foundation provides direct funding to housing-related nonprofit work in Wisconsin, and recent awards include $50,000 to Bayfield County Housing Authority for Permanent housing support and $50,000 to City of Mauston Housing Authority for Permanent housing support. Emergency shelter and transitional housing are another clear lane: Family Promise of Washington County received $50,000 for Emergency/Transitional work, and Golden House Inc in Green Bay received $50,000 for the same type of service. The foundation also funds permanent supportive housing, seen in grants to Movin Out Inc in Madison and NeighborWorks Green Bay. Beyond housing placement and shelter, it supports community development through initiatives such as the Vacancy-to-Vitality Loan Program, which finances commercial-to-housing conversions for workforce and senior housing in Wisconsin.

    How Wheda Foundation Gives

    Typical grants fall in a narrow band, with a p25 of $21,975, a median of $41,000, and a p75 of $50,000. The recent grant list is dominated by round $50,000 awards, with one larger outlier at $59,911. The foundation gives through both a competitive loan structure and an unsolicited housing grant cycle, and the housing grant program accepts unsolicited submissions. The pattern is highly consistent over time in the recent record: many recipients appear in a single year, while the funding mix repeats similar housing and emergency-support uses rather than one-off thematic shifts. The foundation is not a fund for individuals and does not make program-related investments.
