Jasper Community Foundation Grant

The Jasper Community Foundation is accepting applications for its 2025 grant cycle, with a submission deadline of April 30, 2025. This opportunity is designed to support local organizations that are making a positive impact in Jasper County, Iowa. Applicants must complete an online application and submit all required supporting documentation to be considered. The application process involves two key components. First, applicants must complete the online form and select "Jasper Community Foundation" when prompted for the county or organization. Second, applicants must submit several required documents, which may be emailed to JCFoundation@outlook.com or mailed to the foundation’s P.O. Box in Newton, Iowa. These documents include a copy of the organization’s most recent IRS determination letter, the most recent tax filing (Form 990), a signed board approval agreement, and a signed fiscal sponsorship agreement if applicable. Only applications that include both the online submission and the complete set of supporting documents will be considered. The required board approval and fiscal sponsorship forms can be downloaded from the foundation's website under the “Additional Documents” section. Grants awarded through the Jasper Community Foundation support a broad range of local needs and initiatives, though specific funding priorities or award amounts are not detailed in the available documentation. The foundation has a history of making awards to local nonprofits, educational institutions, and community organizations serving Jasper County.
