State: Indiana
County: LaPorte County (IN)
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 07/22/2022
Size of the Grant: $500-$5,000
Details:
The Unity Foundation Power for Good Fund was established to be responsive to local needs. This fund is permanent and only the earnings are spent each year. As a result, these grants will be available to sustain their local efforts for generations to come.
What types of projects are funded?
As Unity Foundation embraces the future of serving La Porte County, the Grant Making Committee encourages submission of innovative projects. Many good repetitive projects have been supported over the years, but the preference is to seek out new concepts that will further enhance the quality of life and strengthen their county. Further considerations include:
- Issues not adequately being serviced by existing community resources
- One-time projects or needs
- Projects that provide leverage for generating other funds and community resources
- Projects that facilitate cooperation and collaboration between organizations and the communities within La Porte County
Funding Information
Requests should be at least $500 and no more than $5,000.
Eligibility Criteria
- Generally, only charitable organizations with verifiable 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, and operating or offering programs in La Porte County, Indiana, will be considered. Start-up or ad hoc organizations may not yet have obtained 501(c)(3) status. If that is the case, they suggest you find an organization to “host” the project or program and have them request funds with you.

- Churches may request funds for non-sectarian purposes only, such as community programs/projects.
- Governmental bodies, such as townships and fire districts, as well as educational institutions, are also eligible; however, please note the additional restrictions for those organizations under General Grant Making Policies.
