This Fund provides a strong source of grant funding for a wide variety of Eau Claire area organizations. Unlike many other Funds, which focus on specific areas based on donor intent and field of interest, the Royal Credit Union Fund is unrestricted. Its flexibility allows the Foundation's grant reviewers to fund grant applications that address the community's most pressing needs, even if the proposed programs don't specifically correspond to the objectives of other existing Funds.

In 2012, Royal Credit Union established the RCU Foundation to support organizations and initiatives in all communities where the credit union operates in western Wisconsin and eastern Minnesota.

Donations to support the RCU Foundation's mission should be made via the RCU Foundation website .

The following organizations are grateful for their generous support from this fund:

• Eau Claire Children's Theatre

• Lutheran Social Services

• Prevent Blindness Wisconsin

• The Community Table

• The Wellness Shack
