About Dubois County Community Foundation
Dubois County Community Foundation’s recent giving is marked by very large institutional grants tied to local civic and service systems. The largest award in the dataset is $982,942 to Community Holdings of Dubois County Inc in 2023, followed by $904,780 to Lifespring Health Systems in 2024 and $750,000 to the City of Jasper in 2024. Those amounts sit alongside repeated support for organizations working in health, community development, and place-based projects, including the Fund for Dubois County and Memorial Hospital Foundation. The foundation also shows a recurring pattern of backing institutions that anchor community life, such as schools, churches, museums, and municipal entities, while its stated focus areas include arts, youth and education, faith and historic preservation, mental health and substance use, early care and education, scholarships, and community development. Its grantmaking is not limited to one channel: the data shows scholarship awards, competitive nonprofit grants, unrestricted community grants, project and capital grants, and a dedicated initiative for mental health and substance use disorders. That mix suggests a funder that combines broad community support with targeted investments in local systems and facilities.
