About Us

The Madison Club Charitable Foundation has raised more than $1.1 million for local non-profit organizations over the last thirteen years. The Foundation's signature event, the Charity Gala, is hosted each fall at the Madison Club. Past recipients have included Porchlight, the Ronald McDonald House, Centro Hispano, 100 Black Men of Madison, Simpson Street Free Press, among many others.

From January 1 - February 15 each year, Madison Club members are invited to submit grant requests on behalf of any non-profit organization in the Dane County area. The final Gala recipient is determined by the Foundation's board of directors based on the grant proposal, a site visit, and in-person interviews with key individuals within the organization. To learn how you can nominate an organization, please contact Krista Laubmeier at the Madison Club: krista@madisonclub.org or visit the Madison Club Charitable Foundation's website on or after January 1, 2019.
