We stay on the pulse of opportunities and challenges people and organizations face and make grants that infuse dollars into nonprofits addressing those needs.

Quad Cities Disaster Recovery Fund

The Quad Cities Disaster Recovery Fund provides support to organizations meeting the needs of vulnerable people and communities in Scott and Rock Island Counties, and ensures we have the resources to target our community's long-term recovery efforts after a disaster. Every dollar donated will be used for needs here in the Quad Cities area.
