The foundation’s 2024 grants included local organizations serving people with disabilities or economic challenges, women recovering from addiction and abuse, animals, youth and families, older and disabled residents, and people needing food and shelter.

Several listed grants, including those to Place of Grace and the Humane Society, were identified as operating support.
The website describes two general grant cycles each year for charitable projects benefiting quality of life in Huntington; these cycles do not fund operating costs. Cycle I applications open December 1 and Cycle II applications open June 2. Classroom Education Grants open annually on September 1 for innovative Pre-K through grade 12 classroom projects. Accessibility Grant inquiries are accepted year-round and reviewed case by case. The foundation also lists the Kudo Grant, which supports local nonprofits’ fundraising efforts, and the Make a Difference Grant, which supports nonprofit organizations serving Huntington County.
For the 2026 Cycle I process, eligible applicants submit a letter of intent; approved letters are invited to the application stage, and an invitation does not guarantee funding. The stated evaluation criteria include project description, alignment with prioritized impact areas, scale and value of impact, organization background, and draft SMART goals and action steps. Charitable organizations without IRS-approved 501(c)(3) status need a 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor. Taxing authorities are not eligible for that grant.
