(LAGRANGE) - Applications are being accepted for Cycle 1 of the 2026-2027 LIFE Grants Program.
The program is being done by the LaGrange County Community Foundation. LIFE Grants support projects, programs and curriculum that introduce educational opportunities to youth across LaGrange County.
Funding priorities focus on youth educational projects such as: helping students grow, building connections; sparking new ideas and making a lasting impression.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, government agencies and public schools that serve the youth of LaGrange County. Grants will not be considered for individuals, political activities or religious instruction.
Grant awards are typically around $500.
After the application deadline, proposals are reviewed by the student members of LIFE, the Foundation's youth philanthropy program, and then recommended to the Community Foundation Board of Directors for final approval.
Grant recipients will be notified in December.
The application deadline for Cycle 1 is September 28. If you have any questions you can contact Beth Retterbush, Scholarship and LIFE Program Manager by calling 260-463-4363.
