Youth Grants

The Youth Grants program is managed by the Putnam County Community Foundation Youth Philanthropy Committee, with funding from the Putnam County Youth Philanthropy Endowment. It offers grants to youth-led projects and charitable groups that support youth initiatives benefiting Putnam County. The Board may provide additional guidance on areas of need based on PCCF’s Community Needs Assessments. Throughout the year, the committee can make proactive grants as needs arise and as approved by the Board.
