About The Fox Cares Foundation
The Fox Cares Foundation was founded in 2016 to raise funds to address three needs that we believe nurture a physically and emotionally healthy community.
Easing Homelessness …because no person should have to go without a place to call home.
Easing Hunger…because no community thrives when some go hungry.
Cultivating the Arts for All …because expression through the arts brings beauty to the community at large.

Fox Communities Credit Union
Fox Cares Foundation was created by Fox Communities Credit Union to help community members “contribute with confidence” by making donations that will be managed responsibly and directed to reputable charitable nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations that provide the resources people need to overcome the challenges they’re facing throughout the Fox Valley and beyond.
Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region
Fox Cares Foundation works with Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region to support nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations by connecting individual gifts and grants to those in need in Fox Valley communities including Calumet, Outagamie, Shawano and Waupaca counties and the Neenah-Menasha area of Winnebago county, in addition to families of funds in Brillion, Chilton, Clintonville, Shawano and Waupaca.
