A single county treasurer received the foundation’s largest recent grant: $3,993,928 to Floyd County Treasurer in 2025 for general support. That scale is a useful marker for Community Foundation of Southern Indiana Inc., which combines large discretionary distributions with a broad regional grantmaking portfolio across Southern Indiana. The foundation’s recent grants include major support for public-space projects, scholarships, nonprofit capacity, and community relief, alongside repeated support to local intermediaries and operating organizations. The pattern is not limited to one-time awards. Community Foundation of Southern Indiana Inc. appears repeatedly in the same recipient networks, including Floyd County Treasurer, Community Foundation Partnership Inc, Align Southern Indiana Inc, and Indiana University Southeast. Those relationships sit alongside project-based funding for parks, facilities, transportation, and educational access. Its giving also reaches beyond its immediate county network into Clark County, Martin County, and nearby Indiana and Kentucky recipients when the purpose fits a regional need. Several grants point to a funder that uses both unrestricted and purpose-specific support. Recent awards cover annual distributions, designated fund distributions, scholarship funds, and grants tied to specific projects such as accessible recreation, mental health programming for girls, and facility upgrades.
Community Foundation of Southern Indiana Inc funds a wide mix of community priorities. In quality-of-place work, it gave $150,000 to the Town of Borden for a quality of place grant and $150,000 to the City of Charlestown for the same theme, showing a clear interest in public-facing local improvements. Education shows up through scholarship support. The foundation awarded $269,960 to Indiana University Southeast Financial Aid Office for scholarship funds and $94,105 to Indiana University Southeast for the Chancellor's Medallion Gala Scholarship Fund. Those grants sit alongside a broader scholarship program for students in the region. Health and human services are another recurring area. Personal Counseling Service Inc received $127,231 for matching grant support for expansion, while Greater Clark County Schools Educational Foundation received $116,000 for improving the mental health of girls in Clark County. The foundation also supported community infrastructure through $166,000 to Friends of Open Door Youth Services for a capacity building grant and transportation/facility upgrades.
