Creating opportunities in Hocking County
With a common goal of ensuring Hocking County is abundant in possibility for all who call our communities home, we partner with donors, doers and FAO to invest in three program areas that provide funding to local nonprofit and public organizations, students and community builders.
Grant Opportunities
Annual investments in our people and communities
With the support of our donors and in partnership with FAO, we award grants annually to nonprofits, schools and public organizations for projects and programs that create opportunities and meet needs.
Scholarships
Investing in students
Our scholarships are made possible by donors who believe supporting the educational and career goals of Hocking County students plays a vital role in the well-being of our people and communities.
Fellowships
Uplifting the work and visions of local leaders
FAO’s fellowship program, working in partnership with its affiliate foundations, provides support to individual leaders with a goal of growing their impact from one community to many.
Fill the Freezer
Fighting hunger – one pig at a time
Our Fill the Freezer campaign is a summer tradition of giving that puts pork on the tables of our neighbors and supports those working on the front lines of food insecurity in Hocking County.
