• SCHOLARSHIPS: WE PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDENTS WANTING TO PURSUE POST SECONDARY EDUCATION. THESE SCHOLARSHIPS ARE TO HELP WITH EXPENSES RELATING TO TUITION, FEES AND BOOKS. AS A COMMUNITY, WE HOPE TO BE ABLE TO FINANCIALLY HELP OUR CITIZENS OBTAIN EDUCATION PAST A HIGH SCHOOL DEGREE. ONLY 13.3% OF ADULTS OVER TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF AGE IN WHITLEY COUNTY HAVE A FOUR YEAR DEGREE. IT IS THE HOPE THAT SCHOLARSHIPS WILL IMPROVE THAT PERCENTAGE OVER TIME.

  Expenses $545,991 · Grants $496,960 · Revenue $102,389

• GRANTS: THE WHITLEY COUNTY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION'S UNRESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS RESPOND TO THE EVER-CHANGING ISSUES FACING WHITLEY COUNTY. TWICE A YEAR, THE FOUNDATION'S VOLUNTEER GRANTS COMMITTEE REVIEWS APPLICATIONS AND MAKES FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. GRANTS ARE MADE POSSIBLE BY DONORS WHO HAVE INSTRUCTED THE FOUNDATION TO DIRECT THEIR GIFTS WHERE EVER THE NEED IS THE GREATEST. THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION DIRECTS GRANTS TO CHARITABLE PROJECTS THAT WILL MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON WHITLEY COUNTY AND ITS PEOPLE, WITH PARTICULAR INTEREST IN PROJECTS THAT SHED NEW LIGHT ON LOCAL NEEDS AND PROVIDE INNOVATIVE, LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS. CATEGORIES OF SUPPORT INCLUDE: ARTS & CULTURE, HEALTH, CIVIC AFFAIRS, RECREATION, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, WELFARE, AND EDUCATION.

  Expenses $2,412,224 · Grants $2,195,604 · Revenue $452,361

• CONVENING COMMUNITY LEADERS: THE WHITLEY COUNTY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION WILL BE THE CATALYST FOR CHANGE IN THE COMMUNITY. WHENEVER NEEDS ARISE, THE FOUNDATION ACTS AS THE CONVENER TO THE INTERESTED PARTIES TO HELP FACILITATE CHANGE. SINCE THE FOUNDATION IS NOT POLITICAL, IT CAN STAY NEUTRAL IN MANY SITUATIONS.

Officers and directors · 2025

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
