Thanks to generous donations from Cass County citizens, as well as effective stewardship and financial management of unrestricted funds, CCCF has continued to consistently meet the community’s needs through awarding grants. Non-profit, 501(c) (3) organizations serving Cass County are encouraged to apply for grants designed for projects which benefit the community and improve the quality of life in Cass County.
A FREE grant-writing workshop will be held at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday May 24th at the Cass County Community Foundation building, 729 E. Market Street and will last less than one hour. The workshop is free and will explain new requirements for organizations to apply for the 2017 Competitive Grants as well as a new process for smaller requests.
Deanna Crispen. CCCF President stressed, “For the first time ever grant proposals will have a minimum request level for the competitive cycle. Several other changes have been made affecting the application for smaller grants and the timeline for those requests will be different. We are hoping that these changes will encourage organizations to keep asking for the things they need but to also dream bigger. While it is not mandatory, we are urging all non-profit organizations who intend to apply to have a representative at the workshop”
Space is limited so those planning to attend must call CCCF at 574-722-2200 for reservations.
Grant applications may be picked up at the CCCF office, 729 E. Market Street, downtown Logansport, or downloaded from the Foundation website (www.casscountycf.org) after the workshop. The deadline to return completed grant applications is by 5:00p.m. on Friday June 30, 2017. For information about the application process, contact the CCCF office at 574-722-2200.
