The direction and purpose include to:
- Promote an active interest in the community

Grant Guidelines
- The project proposed should contribute to the educational, agricultural promotion, or community service missions of both the Jefferson County Agribusiness Club and the organization applying for the grant.
- The project should be either a new endeavor or one that enhances an existing program of your organization. The grant request can be for full funding of a smaller project, for specific items needed to fulfill your organization’s mission, or partial funding of a larger project.
- The monetary value of each grant awarded will depend on the number and merit of the proposals received, but the expected range will be $200-$1000. Grants will be awarded in two increments, with the first being given by the start-of-project date indicated on the grant application form and the remaining balance awarded after all grant requirements have been fulfilled.
