The Community Foundation is dedicated to making a sustainable impact in Grant County by supporting a variety of causes. Through donations, they support community development, education, health, and human services by funding projects and scholarships that aim to improve the quality and vitality of life in the area.
The grant program focuses on a wide range of community betterment initiatives, from infrastructure improvements like swing sets and dog parks to health, education, and human services enhancements. Specifically, the Foundation awards around 200 scholarships annually to students in Grant County, covering academic expenses across all levels and disciplines. A notable initiative is the Little Free Library Grant Cycle, celebrating the Foundation's 40th anniversary by planning to establish 40 Little Free Libraries across the county. This initiative aims to promote literacy and ensure every community member has access to books, underpinning their belief that access to reading material should not be constrained by socioeconomic factors.
