Informational Chats Scheduled for Capital and Capacity Building Community Projects Matching Grant Cycle

Published: May 6, 2024 by Johnson County Community Foundation

Johnson County Community Foundation (JCCF) has scheduled one wine chat and three coffee chats across the county to give the public the opportunity to ask questions about the Capital and Capacity Building Community Projects Matching Grant Cycle.

In March, JCCF received a matching fund grant totaling $3 million as part of the eighth phase of Lilly Endowment Inc.’s initiative, Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow (GIFT VIII). The Foundation will use $2.1 million for unrestricted endowment building and $900,000 for their Capital and Capacity Building Community Projects Grant Program.

Qualifying matching funds raised for community projects and programs or capacity-building activities will be eligible for a $1(grantor)-to-$1(grantee) match. The application for the grant program opens online on June 5, 2024 and is due July 1, 2024 by 4:00 p.m.
