Badger Camp Receives Grant from the Alliant Energy Foundation


Wisconsin Badger Camp is pleased to announce that it is the recipient of a grant from the Alliant Energy Foundation.  This grant will be put towards our Campership Program.  Wisconsin Badger Camp’s Campership Program is an ongoing initiative that was established to help provide financial assistance to campers who wish to attend.  This means that our 42 Grant County campers will received the needed financial assistance to attend Badger Camp.   
The Alliant Energy Foundation was made to better the community presently and in the future in areas where Alliant Energy is located.  Because Badger Camp does not accept any state or federal funding, the Alliant Energy Foundation has played a large role in helping campers have the opportunity to come to camp.
“We love to see a local foundation like Alliant Energy supporting campers right here in our community,” Development Director, Kayla Leibfried said. “We greatly appreciate Alliant Energy Foundation’s ongoing support of our mission.”

Wisconsin Badger Camp is an independent nonprofit organization located approximately 10 miles south of Prairie du Chien and serves approximately 900 individuals with developmental disabilities each summer.  Badger Camp relies on the community’s time, talent, and financial assistance to provide for its campers.  If you or someone else you know would like more information on how to make a donation or for tour information please call Wisconsin Badger Camp at (608) 348-9689 or visit our website at: www.badgercamp.org
