Caesars Foundation of Floyd County Major Grant

The Caesars Foundation of Floyd County Major Grant supports impactful projects in the community, focusing on arts, education, health, community development, and human services. Established in 2002, the foundation has committed significant funds to enhance the quality of life in Floyd County. With a strong emphasis on long-term benefits, the foundation encourages applications that align with its mission to foster cultural enrichment, educational advancement, and community well-being.

As Foundation assets grow, our Board of Directors have occasionally awarded funds for “major grants” which have a long-term economic or quality of life impact on the Floyd County community. The first such grant was in 2002 -- a $20,000,000 commitment over 20 years -- to the Scribner Place YMCA & Aquatic Center.
