Thanks to generous donations, along with the partnership with the Kendrick Foundation, Inc., the Community Foundation of Morgan County makes grants that help our community grow stronger, be more sustainable and continue to be vibrant. In 2012, the CFMC will help to distribute over $2 million in grants and scholarships from our own endowment and non-permanent funds, the Lilly Endowment and the Kendrick Foundation, Inc.

    The 2012 CFMC Matching and Arts Grants Cycle has concluded.  The timeline for each year's grant cycle commences in early August.  Information about the 2013 grant cycle will be posted here, and released to the newspapers through our own newsletters when details are announced.

   Selection criteria for the CFMC Matching and Arts Grants will include, but are not limited to: innovative solutions to a significant community issue; impact on the community; ability to carry out the project, and how the project will increase community awareness of the identified funding priority and the CFMC.

   Applicants will be advised in writing regarding the status of the application.

Matching Grants and Arts Grants

   The Community Foundation of Morgan County, Inc. offers matching grants and arts grants. Matching grants require that the grant applicant must raise an amount at least equal to what they ask for on their application. Arts grants require no matching funds.

   The Community Foundation of Morgan County, Inc. welcomes grant applications from non-profit organizations or groups serving Morgan County residents. We do approve grant applications from organizations whose headquarters are located outside the county if a significant number of persons who will be served reside in Morgan County.

   The foundation aims to support creative approaches to community needs and problems by making grants which will benefit a wide range of people.
