Jay Locken and Ken Riley in studio to talk about the United Fund for Arts and Humanities — better known as UFAH — and its annual fundraising campaign.

The organization serves as a vital source of support for La Crosse’s arts and cultural community, providing funding to a dozen local nonprofit member groups, including theatre companies, music ensembles, museums, and historical societies.

This year, UFAH’s campaign goal is $140,000, with every dollar raised going directly toward helping these organizations sustain performances, exhibitions, and educational programs that enrich the Coulee Region’s cultural life.

This is the third campaign for Locken and Riley with UFAH, which relies on donations from individuals, businesses, and workplace giving programs, allowing residents to collectively invest in the arts.

The two noted that even modest contributions have a meaningful impact, since UFAH operates with low administrative costs and channels the majority of its funds straight to its member organizations.
