FALL GRANTS

The Henry County Community Foundation (HCCF) board of directors has awarded $152,778 to organizations serving Henry County residents. The purpose of these grants is to assist local nonprofits in promoting and supporting social services, arts and culture, health and recreation, civic affairs, and the educational needs of Henry County residents.
