Ho-Chunk, Inc. works very hard to identify potential candidates and to provide them with solid support and training once hired. That is why the company has such a strong commitment to education in order to expose Tribal members to all levels of higher education and skill sets.

Ho-Chunk, Inc. employs over 1,700 workers, with 54% of on reservation employees being Native American. Since 1989, the median household income on the reservation has increased 78%.

The Winnebago Reservation lacks affordable housing for Tribal members and those who could afford a monthly house payment have been forced to live elsewhere. Others do not have the funds to purchase a home because of the lack of down payment available to them. Ho-Chunk, Inc. and the Winnebago Tribe have worked together to develop a Housing Down Payment Assistance Program that provides a significant portion of a standard down payment for a new homeowner. The homeowner does go through a special education course and must meet other criteria to qualify.

Since its incorporation in 1994, Ho-Chunk, Inc. has made substantial donations to the Winnebago community and the Winnebago Tribe. These contributions consist not only of direct monetary donations, but also materials and “in kind” services. Contributions include fundraising for organizations and non-profits as well as tax revenues, dividends paid to the Tribe and payroll.

In 2023, Ho-Chunk, Inc. contributed $37,835,479 in dividends to the Tribe.
