Harrison County Community Foundation (HCCF) accepts grant applications year-round from nonprofit agencies serving Harrison County, Indiana. The program supports local services and projects that improve residents’ quality of life, rather than a particular research discipline. Its primary funding areas are arts and culture, government, human services, historical preservation, health and safety, recreation, community projects, environment, and education.
The foundation’s grantmaking policy also addresses school capital and program projects, arts matching funds, youth activities, preschool readiness, and land conservation easements. The Board of Directors strives for equitable geographic distribution of awards throughout the county. HCCF prefers qualified local contractors and vendors where practical, and encourages applicants to identify other funding supporting their projects.
