Couleecap is a 501c3 nonprofit organization serving the needs of low-income people and families in Crawford, La Crosse, Monroe, and Vernon counties.

Our Mission

Couleecap fights poverty and promotes self-sufficiency, economic development, and social justice. We are People Helping People, and every day our actions make a difference in the lives of people and families throughout the Coulee Region.

Our Vision ​

Couleecap makes a difference in the lives of people in the Coulee Region. To do this, we pledge to:

• Empower people to achieve their full potential;
• Promote social and economic justice;
• Serve as a catalyst for change; and
• Strengthen families and communities. 

Our Values​​

Couleecap is committed to our work and to excellence in our performance. We recognize our responsibility to the people and communities we serve, our employees, and the society in which we live and work. This includes making our agency sustainable for future generations. As the region’s weatherization provider for 50 years, we continue to strive as a leader in the advancement of energy conservation. Our solar array and partners have helped Couleecap move toward energy independence and a more sustainable future. 

In the first year, we are estimated to save $7,885.71 in energy costs! This savings allows Couleecap to reinvest those dollars back into our programming, our organization, and our employees so we have more energy (and funds) to meet the needs of our community.
