The Jeffris Family Foundation
The Jeffris Family Foundation is dedicated to Wisconsin's cultural history and heritage through preserving regionally and nationally important historic buildings and decorative arts projects. The Foundation supports significant projects that strive for high preservation standards and show a strong degree of local support.
Founded in Janesville, Wisconsin in 1979, the Foundation currently has more than $20 million in assets, and grants about $1 million annually. Because of the Foundation's focus on preservation, it has developed specific criteria for selecting projects. These criteria are illustrated on the following pages.
"I have witnessed many small organizations and local governments in Wisconsin that struggle to support and preserve historic buildings that have given their communities a sense of place. The Jeffris Family Foundation has a commitment to assist dedicated communities with funding opportunities designed to preserve their architectural heritage for future generations."
Thomas M. Jeffris
President,
Jeffris Family Foundation
