Jackson County Community Foundation accepting applications through Sept. 10
JACKSON, Ohio – The Jackson County Community Foundation (JCCF) in partnership with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio is accepting grant applications from nonprofits, schools and public organizations for projects and programs benefiting Jackson County residents and communities.
The 2024 application period for grant funding opens July 30 and closes Sept. 10.
JCCF will award grants that advance opportunities across five areas of need: arts and culture, community and economic development, education, environmental stewardship, and health and human services. Emphasis is on supporting individuals of all ages who are spearheading projects and programs that create opportunities, meet pressing needs and unleash the potential within Jackson County.
Funding requests should be between $500 and $5,000, but larger requests may be considered based on potential impact. Additional information and the 2024 grant application are available at www.AppalachianOhio.org/Jackson.
Earnings from charitable giving to JCCF are reinvested in Jackson County through annual grants that meet the county’s greatest needs and seize its most promising opportunities.
