The Martin County Community Foundation Board of Directors awarded $78,210 in Impact and Boost Grants to six local organizations in the first quarterly round of grants in the 2025 Open Application Grant Cycle. With this grant process, grantseekers can apply online year-round; applications are pulled and evaluated quarterly.
Kevin Lewis, MCCF Grants Chair, commented on the most recent cycle, “It’s really quite impressive seeing people unite with a shared purpose. None of this would be possible without the generosity and passion of the citizens of this great county.”
Daviess-Martin Joint County Parks and Recreation’s and the Martin County Solid Waste District’s grants were conditional upon raising additional funds for their projects. Both organizations raised the additional funds required to secure their grants.
