Hancock County Community Foundation




Mary Gibble, President and Michelle Leonard, Advancement Officer of Hancock County Community Foundation (HCCF) told Kiwanis about the You Give, We Match program.  The Foundation was established during the GIFT program from Lilly Endowment Inc.  In 1992 HCCF had assets of $2,394 which has grown to over $30 million dollars this year. 
Over $609,000 in grants were made this year.  Only $208,000 of that amount came from unrestricted funds. Unrestricted Funds allows HCCF to make grants in response to community needs.  The Kenneth Butler Memorial Soup Kitchen and Greenfield Unit of Salvation Army benefited from the Unrestricted Grants. 
Lilly Endowment is offering up to $1 miillion to HCCF in a matching grant.  If you would like to participate in this matching opportunity contact Hancock County Community Foundation at 317.462.8870 or http://givehcgrowhc.org/ .
