The Sprit Lutheran Foundation (SLF) serves the Chippewa Valley by awarding grants to programs that enhance the quality of life in our community in the areas of mental health, dementia, disabilities, homelessness, clothing, food, safety, substance abuse, and basic and spiritual health care services. SLF also supports living green initiatives that care for God’s creation, the Earth.

The Spirit Lutheran Foundation feels blessed that we were able to support the important and needed work our local non-profit agencies provide to the community through your generous donations. In 2024, the amount we granted to these 26 agencies was $174,600.

Since the Chippewa Valley Community Grant inception in 2023 the Spirit Lutheran Foundation has proudly granted a total of $324,200 to non-profit organizations in the Chippewa Valley.
