RCCF accepting Women’s Giving Circle grant applications

RIPLEY COUNTY, IN — Thanks to the Ripley County Community Foundation (RCCF), nonprofit organizations may apply for one of four $1,000.00 Women’s Fund Grants that will benefit women or children in Ripley County.

In 2021, the Women’s Giving Circle was established to empower women of all socio-economic backgrounds with the ability to address the issues they see in their communities.

A unique aspect of the grant is that the Women’s Giving Circle Sponsors and Members collectively choose which organizations and projects shall receive funding.

RCCF is inviting nonprofits that serve Ripley County to apply for a grant for their organization.

Organizations may apply through the online Grants Portal.

To access the portal, visit the Ripley County Community Foundation website at rccfonline.org, click on the Nonprofits tab at the top of the page and select Grants Portal.

You will then be redirected to the Community Foundation’s online portal where all available grants can be viewed.

Interested organizations should click Women in Philanthropy (Women’s Giving Circle) Grant – FALL for instructions about applying for a grant and the online grant application.

Organizations that have received a Small Project Grant or Community Impact Grant are eligible to apply.

The application is due by 11:59 pm on Friday, August 5.
