“[Oscar] wanted to say ‘thank you’ to the City of Madison, to the University of Wisconsin-Madison and to the residents of the Madison communities that made his success as a businessman possible. So, in his wisdom, he formed and nourished this Foundation.” From Mary Rennebohm’s letter of resignation from the Board, 1991.
The Oscar Rennebohm Foundation has been instrumental in funding both small and large projects focused on education, health, and community since 1949.
Oscar Rennebohm: Business leader, statesman, educator, philanthropist was passionate about serving his community and passing on his legacy through the grants available through the Oscar Rennebohm Foundation.
The Oscar Rennebohm Foundation leadership team is made up of individuals from varied backgrounds, all of whom are committed to seeing Oscar’s vision through in today’s world.
The Oscar Rennebohm Foundation has worked with the Center for Nursing Excellence and St. Vincent de Paul Charity Pharmacy to create two case studies, available as resources to developing similar programs within the community.
