Ways to Give

Grant County is the THIRD most generous county in the State of Indiana. Isn’t that amazing!?

Who knows? It could be your tax-deductible donation, made out to the Community Foundation, that moves us into first place. Yeah, we’re competitive. We can’t help it…we just love where we live! There’s no ribbon or trophy, but giving does make you feel pretty good, doesn’t it? And, you do have our heartfelt gratitude. If you’re not sure which fund to choose, we recommend the Give To Grant Collaborative Fund. You’re gift, combined with other generous donations, significantly increases local grantmaking!

Giving to the Community Foundation is easy and doesn’t require great wealth. No matter how much you give, your philanthropic strategy will be meaningful when aligned with your values, life experiences, interests, or simply the desire to make Grant County a community where every person can reach full potential. With endowed funds supporting a variety of Grant County causes, every gift plays a part in connecting people, resources, and causes to promote sustainable impact towards the betterment of Grant County.
