CICF IsYour Community Foundation
Our mission is to transform your community, and we do that by:
- Consulting with the people, family foundations and charitable advisors who care deeply about our communities, neighborhoods and those who call central Indiana home
- Awarding grants to not-for-profit organizations that are making a difference
- Providing leadership and vision to address community needs and seize opportunities
Local girls use cardboard, hangers and masking tape to build a robotic arm – and possible career options – with help from Girls Inc. of Greater Indianapolis.
The Challenge is designed to bolster enrollment efforts made by school representatives and will now include both Marion and Hamilton counties.
At Big Car’s Service Center, a formerly unused tire store is being transformed into a space where creativity sparks community connections.
Urban parks can improve, define and engage a community, but first they must connect to neighborhoods. With a combination of volunteerism, philanthropy and grants, Midtown Indianapolis is transforming Alice Carter Place Park into a hub and gateway.
Funds will support summer programs, including arts, career exploration and employment, community service, sports and more.
