GROW II 

 

              GROW II ANNUAL PROGRESS       GROW II OPERATING GRANT

Grant County Community Foundation (GCCF) is pleased to announce that the Kansas Health Foundation recently selected us to participate in the second chapter of the Giving Resources to Our World Healthy Kansas Initiative (GROW II). Our foundation is being challenged to raise endowment dollars that will be matched by the Kansas Health Foundation up to $300,000. If we are successful in our fundraising efforts, we will raise over $1,200,000 for the betterment of our community. This local money will stay local.

GROW II is focused on strengthening the community foundation field in Kansas and building endowments to underwrite solutions to local health issues.

In addition to the matching endowed grant, our community foundation will receive training, one- on-one consulting and support and, if we meet certain benchmarks, an operating grant of 3.5 percent of the matching grant awarded by the Kansas Health Foundation on an annual basis for six years.
