The Marion County Community Foundation is recognizing their milestone anniversary with special grants this year.
The Special 10th Anniversary Grant Program will provide a maximum of 10 grants of up to $10,000 each. Mary Van Zante with the Community Foundation tells KNIA/KRLS News the program is designed to support major projects that will provide long-term benefits for residents of Marion County. Organizations may apply for a traditional and/or a Special 10th Anniversary Grant, but only one will be approved per organization. Applications are due by April 20th. Since its inception, the Marion County Community Foundation has given more than $1 million to non-profit organizations in the county.
