Ball Brothers Foundation Accepting Application for General Grants
The Ball Brothers Foundation in Muncie, Indiana, is accepting applications for general grant funding through the second cycle of its general grants program.
Grants of up to $100,000 will be awarded to projects that fall into one of the foundation's six subject areas: education (higher education, public and private education); arts, culture, and the humanities (cultural activities & institutions); human services (including youth services); community improvement/development, health (including school and community wellness, youth development, and recreation); and the environment (including conservation and land management).
Priority will be given to capacity-building projects designed to strengthen all aspects of an organization and its mission; that encourage participation in problem solving, leadership development, partnerships, collaboration, and policy change; and that support organizational and institutional effectiveness and professional development. Special consideration will be given to novel approaches that address traditional or emerging community needs and result in long-term, systematic solutions that use community impact models and are measurable.
To be eligible, applicants must be based in Indiana and be designated as tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
