GIFT VIII Matching Funds
We’re proud to share that the Fayette Community Foundation has successfully completed the $750,000 matching grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. through its Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow (GIFT VIII) initiative.
Through this opportunity, Lilly Endowment provided $2 for every $1 contributed to the Foundation’s Community Impact Funds (unrestricted endowments). Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we reached—and exceeded—the $375,000 goal, unlocking the full $750,000 match and creating a powerful, lasting investment in Fayette County’s future.
Check back next summer to learn more about our next matching fund opportunity!
