The Litchfield Area Community Foundation is in the midst of another grant cycle and the deadline for non-profit organizations to apply for the latest round of grants is fast-approaching. The deadline is September 1st.
Missy Brock says the Foundation has two grant cycles each year and any 501c3 groups that have questions may contact any Foundation board member or email litchareaCFinfo@gmail.com. She says they have certain stipulations for organizations to qualify for the grants that they award, and the grant amounts usually range between $500 and $2,000. She says if anyone is willing to donate to the Foundation, they may go to LACFoundation.org for more details.
Tom Smith says when they are looking through the applications, they look at how each organization’s proposed project will affect the community. He says some past projects that received grants include a lead paint removal project at the Little Red Schoolhouse, the ProWorks thrift store project, the Rotary Club’s Splash Pad campaign, and a photo restoration project at the Meeker County Museum. He says if anyone has questions about the Litchfield Area Community Foundation, they may call the Chamber office at 693-8184.
