The Community Foundation for Crawford County is offering funding for non-profit organizations that have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. “Other than a few grant requests, our Board has decided that this year we will be redirecting our normal grant monies towards alleviating impact from the COVID-19 crisis,” explained Lisa Workman, the Foundation’s President. “This will be our approach until further notice, as we know this event will be occurring in phases and will continue uncovering ongoing emerging needs.” She added that grant applications which had been submitted for the regular grant cycle have been paused indefinitely.
