The Frank L. Weyenberg Charitable Trust provides grants to tax-exempt organizations that support charitable, religious, scientific, literary, or educational purposes. The Trust is managed by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and has a long-standing commitment to funding initiatives that benefit communities, particularly in the areas of arts, culture, humanities, education, environmental and animal welfare, health, human services, public and societal benefit, and religion. While there are no formal geographic restrictions, the Trust primarily supports charitable organizations located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Palm Beach, Florida.

The Trust accepts grant applications from organizations that qualify as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, it does not provide grants for political purposes or to organizations that discriminate based on race, ethnic origin, sexual or religious preference, age, or gender. Eligible organizations are encouraged to submit applications that align with the Trust’s mission to enhance community well-being through charitable activities.

Applications are accepted year-round, but organizations must submit their proposals by April 1 to be considered at the annual grant meeting in May. Grant decisions are typically communicated by June for those applications received by the deadline. The Trust follows a structured review process, ensuring that funds are allocated to initiatives that align with its mission and impact communities effectively.

Applicants will receive an automated email confirming their submission. If awarded, recipients may be required to submit periodic progress reports and a final report detailing the outcomes of their funded projects. These reports help ensure accountability and demonstrate the impact of the funding provided.

The Frank L. Weyenberg Charitable Trust does not specify a minimum or maximum grant amount. However, applicants should ensure that their proposals clearly outline their funding needs and intended use of grant funds. The Trust evaluates applications based on their potential to contribute to charitable, educational, religious, and scientific objectives in a meaningful way.

For additional details regarding eligibility, application submission, or grant requirements, interested applicants should refer to the Trust’s official grant guidelines. Organizations seeking funding are encouraged to align their proposals with the Trust’s priorities and submit comprehensive applications before the deadline to maximize their chances of receiving funding.
