Since 1987, the
Capital Region Community Foundation (CRCF) has been supporting nonprofit programs and services in Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties through its grants.
This
winter alone, the Community Foundation has invested $190,176 in our
local community, approving 42 grants ranging from $500 (
Stormfield Theatre) to $20,000 (
City of Children’s Friends of the Orphans) fund for operating support.
“The
Community Foundation is proud to be able to support a wide range of
charitable causes in our community, especially during tough economic
times when every dollar counts,” says Robin Miner-Swartz, director of
communications for the Capital Region Community Foundation.
“These nonprofits are all working to serve different needs in our
region, and because of the generosity of our donors, we are able to help
support their good work,” she adds.
Other local nonprofits who received grants for general support include the
Greater Lansing Food Bank,
SIREN/Eaton Shelter Inc.,
Sparrow Foundation and the
City Rescue Mission of Lansing.
