The Community Foundation staff and program committee review all grant applications. Wabash County citizens, including Foundation board members, make up the program committee. The Foundation will notify all applicants in writing regarding grant decisions. The Foundation makes grants with the understanding it has no obligation or commitment to provide additional support to grant recipients.
All grants awarded are for a one-year period. Approved grants must be used within the grant period or funds will be forfeited.
We consider grant applications two times per year. Applications must be received by the dates listed below:
Application Deadlines | February 15 | September 15 |
Grants Awarded | March 15 | October 15 |
Final Report Due | March 14, (1 year later) | October 14, (1 year later) |
The Community Foundation welcomes grant proposals from organizations serving Wabash County defined as tax exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service code or non-501(c)(3) organizations with charitable causes.
Organizations applying for the first time or organizations that have a new grant-writer must make an appointment for orientation with Julie Garber at the Foundation before submitting an application. Experienced grant-writers may submit without an appointment.
