Description
The Bill Rowles Youth Foundation Fund, administered by the Greater Toledo Community Foundation, provides grants to nonprofit organizations in northwest Ohio for programs that enhance the lives of young people under 21. The fund prioritizes initiatives serving youth who have had contact with the juvenile justice system, experienced school suspension or expulsion, or faced other behavioral challenges. Preference is given to organizations based in Wood County. Grants may support both operating expenses and the establishment of new programs, but funding is limited and should not be relied upon annually.
