This year the Starke County Community Foundation eliminated deadlines for their grant applications which allows them to accept applications and award grants all throughout the year. Nearly $23,000 of community grant money remains available to Starke County non-profits who submit grant applications to the SCCF.
So far this year, the SCCF has awarded more than $284,000, with around $12,000 going toward community grants. The foundation is looking to award the remaining $22,900 by the end of 2017.
Organizations that have benefited from the deadline free SCCF grants this year include Starke County A.B.A.T.E, Kid’s Closet, Starke County Community Corrections, HealthLinc and the North Judson-San Pierre High School Memorial Committee. Each of the three Starke County Schools also received an education grant.
