At Allegra, we know that the right message, delivered in the right way, can make all the difference, especially for organizations that serve others. That’s why we’re proud to be a local printing company that delivers high-quality print and marketing services, and invests in our community in meaningful ways. Through our FootPRINT Fund®, we support the incredible nonprofits doing essential work right here in Cedar Rapids.
As a business rooted in printing in Cedar Rapids, IA, we are thrilled to announce the recipients of our 2025 FootPRINT Fund awards. These nonprofits represent a wide range of causes, from education and healthcare to the arts and social services. We’re honored to help them amplify their impact through professionally printed materials.
What is the FootPRINT Fund®?
Formally introduced in 2004, Allegra Cedar Rapids’ FootPRINT Fund® was created as a way to give back to the community we love and proudly serve. Since then, our local printing company has donated more than $325,000 in printing and marketing communications services to deserving nonprofit organizations throughout the region.
Each year, selected nonprofits receive up to $1,000 in print services to help them enhance their image, expand their services and extend their print and marketing budgets. These grants can be used for a wide range of materials, everything from brochures, banners and signage to postcards, direct mail pieces and promotional materials.
The goal? To empower nonprofits to connect more effectively with their audiences through professionally crafted print communications while helping their dollars go further.
Congratulations to the 2025 FootPRINT Fund® Recipients!
We’re proud to shine a light on this year’s grant recipients, organizations that go above and beyond to serve the Cedar Rapids community. Whether they’re feeding families, mentoring youth, caring for the environment or promoting the arts, each of these nonprofits is making a meaningful difference.
