The Lifelong Learning Grant Cycle, part of our Rising Together Grants program, aims to cultivate a community-wide commitment to continuous learning. By supporting initiatives that foster personal growth, workforce development, and resilience, we strive to empower individuals and uplift our region.
This year, with the support of the Paul Clarke Endowment and the Community Impact Fund, we awarded $308,750 across eighteen organizations. These grants, ranging up to $50,000, are helping local nonprofits deliver impactful education, after-school programs, and adult learning opportunities in Allen County.
