Details:
The Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation manages more than 300 permanently endowed funds. These funds were created by families, individuals, businesses and organizations to address a particular charitable purpose in the community. Because these funds reflect the diverse interests of the community, they are able to provide grants to a wide variety of community programs. Community Foundation staff will match your request with those endowed funds whose charitable purpose would be served by awarding a grant to your program or project. Sometimes, representatives of these funds will review your application and make grant recommendations to the Foundation’s Board of Trustees. The Board has the sole authority to authorize grants from the Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation. Monies for a single grant may come from more than one of the Community Foundation’s endowed funds.
Through this initiative, MPACF seeks to invest in projects that improve childcare capacity, workforce stability, and long-term sustainability across Isabella County.
