Just when we thought 2023 might be our biggest year yet, along came 2024. A LOT happened in December.
GIFT VIII has the potential to change the trajectory of Rush County. Another $5M investment from Lilly Endowment coupled with $787,500 for endowed, unrestricted Community Grants Funds and $450,000 for the Love Community Center. Assets have grown to more than $30M. More than $3M in gifts from people like you. A record year for grants and scholarships totaling more than $1M. While these numbers are impressive, they tell only part of the story.
It’s your generosity and support that makes all the difference for Rush County – today, tomorrow, and forever. Thank you!
And don’t count out 2025. As our GIFT VII large-scale project, The Love Community Center, wraps up with a grand opening in the coming months, work on the GIFT VIII Rural Revitalization Plan will begin soon. These are exciting times. Happy New Year indeed!
