Jayva’s Love Fund

Jayva’s Love Foundation Inc was established by Jayva’s mother in 2018 after Jayva’s tragic death, at the age of 4.

From her experience of going through the burial process, she learned that a headstone is not included in the burial cost and many parents are unprepared for the additional thousands of dollars needed for a headstone.

Through Jayva’s Love they will provide any qualified parent(s) a memorial marker and a stand for their child’s place of rest.

Gifts to this fund will provide burial markers for Grant County children 21 and under whose parents could not afford a marker in addition to funeral expenses.


Applying for a Grant

Giving is the heart of what we do here at the Community Foundation. Every year, we give over $1 million dollars to non-profits, community entities, and college-bound students here in Grant County.

From swing sets and dog parks, to gardens and special events, we fund a variety of causes that promote sustainable impact towards the betterment of Grant County. Your project may be next!

Community Calendar

The Community Foundation is thrilled to be a part of the launch of a collaborative effort that created the Do Grant County community calendar! This community calendar was established by multiple organizations as an inclusive system to find and submit local events all in one place. Check it out…you’ll be amazed at what all there is to DO in Grant County!

Do Grant County is a website for the public to use in promoting community events and activities. Instead of posting your event to multiple platforms and in various formats, use this resource and search for events of broad interests all in one location.

The calendar is an avenue for the public to use in promoting their own community events (meetings, fundraisers, performances, activities…).  Feel free to browse and submit your own event(s) on the website at www.DoGrantCounty.com.
