The Wabash Heartland Innovation Network (WHIN) has awarded $50,000 to the Community Foundation of Pulaski County (CFPC).
The grant will support the Community Foundation’s continuing Forward-Thinking Leadership Initiative and Aspirations in Action efforts. The initiatives align with WHIN’s mission to create thriving communities and set the stage for economic development and growth.
Broadband, housing, and downtown development will benefit from the WHIN grant, including support for a Main Street Winamac director.
The grant opportunity was made available to community foundations in WHIN’s ten county region to support their efforts to make the region a place of prosperity for all residents.
Funded initially with a Lilly Endowment Inc. grant, WHIN’s goal has been to cultivate a prosperous ecosystem that empowers globally-competitive businesses to plant and grow in the Wabash Heartland and to make its region the global epicenter of digital agriculture and next-generation manufacturing.
