Community Grants

It's all about maximizing our resources to build stronger communities, together.

Alliant Energy and the Alliant Energy Foundation build stronger communities through investments in organizations and communities in Iowa and Wisconsin. We take an intentional approach guided by our Focus Areas to advance short and long-term goals. We’re particularly interested in projects and outcomes that focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. To see the variety of support we provide, have a look at what we’ve funded.

Our team strives to make the process to request support streamlined and easy. We have one application and three deadlines throughout the year.
