MidWestOne Bank Foundation

Since its founding in 2001, the MidWestOne Bank Foundation has awarded over $3 million in grants to nonprofit organizations, supporting initiatives across community development, community services, arts, culture, youth, and education. The foundation has been driven by a simple belief: strong communities are built through sustained, intentional investment.

While the MidWestOne Bank Foundation formally sunsets in early 2026, it will continue serving our communities through Nicolet National Bank and the Nicolet National Foundation, both which have a strong history of community support.
