Grants
For 20 years we've been providing partnership funding to non-profit organizations to keep Wisconsin's tourism industry growing. And it's working. Perhaps your good idea will be next to receive a Joint Effort Marketing grant or Ready, Set, Go! sports grant.
Joint Effort Marketing (JEM) Grant Program
If you have original ideas, we’d like to consider helping with funding. Our grant programs could be the key to getting that idea off the ground. Categories include new and existing events, sales promotions, and destination marketing.
Ready, Set, Go! Grant Program
There is money to be made in attracting sports events to Wisconsin. In fact, this is one of the fastest growing tourism niches around. This grant program helps destinations with up-front funds to secure competitive events.
Other Grants
The Wisconsin Office of Recovery and Reinvestment is working with private and municipal stakeholders in our state to put federal recovery money to work to create jobs. Visit their website for information on all grant programs, including: Environment and Water, Broadband and Workforce, among others.
