(Ripley County, IN) – The Ripley County Community Foundation is honored to announce that it is now accepting grant applications for the Holton Warhorses Legacy Fund.
All nonprofit organizations which serve the Town of Holton are invited to apply for up to $500 in grant funding to support a charitable program or project which will benefit the residents of the Town of Holton.
