The Community Foundation of Huntington County is currently accepting applications for its 2025 Hometown Grants program. This grant opportunity is dedicated to supporting community-focused projects located specifically in the Towns of Andrews, Markle, and Warren. Projects must benefit the residents of these towns and be designed for a charitable community purpose. Any proposal that enriches a single individual or a select group will not be considered.

Eligible applicants include any organization or initiative proposing a project that delivers measurable and beneficial outcomes for the specified towns. Each project is eligible for up to $5,000 in funding per calendar year. These grants are intended to foster community well-being, provide long-term benefits, and address the needs of a broad segment of the population in the specified areas.

Applications will be evaluated based on four primary criteria: the merit and quality of the proposal, the demonstrated community need, the expected long-term impact on the town, and the number of people the project will benefit. This ensures that awarded grants align closely with the Foundation’s goals of fostering sustainable and inclusive local development.

The submission deadline for the 2025 Hometown Grants program is April 10, 2025, at 4:00 PM. All applications must be submitted through the Community Foundation of Huntington County's online grant platform, powered by Foundant Technologies.

Applicants should ensure that their proposals are well-structured, clearly articulated, and effectively convey both the community relevance and the lasting value of the project. While specific contact information is not provided in the announcement, applicants can access additional details and manage submissions via the foundation's official online portal.
