Idaho Community Foundation grants over $220K to east Idaho organizations. Here’s who received money.

The following is a news release from the Idaho Community Foundation.

The Idaho Community Foundation is giving support to nearly 60 schools, senior centers and other community organizations with more than $220,000 in grants through its Forever Idaho East program.

Grantees stretch from Lemhi County to Bear Lake County. One of the unique aspects about Forever Idaho grants is that they are flexible and can be used for the recipients’ greatest needs.

“Time passes between when someone applies for a Forever Idaho grant and when they receive it. Their needs may change during that time,” said Lisa Bearg, ICF’s Senior Philanthropic Advisor. “We want our grants to be as responsive as we can make them.”
