Tri Kappa invites grant applications for local non-profit groups serving ZIP codes 46383 and 46385. Application periods are in October and March, with decisions made in October and April. Each organization is encouraged to submit a request for specific funds up to $3,000.  Due to high need in the current economic climate, awards are rarely that high, but we do try to award as much as we can based on the pool of applicants, the purpose of the requested funds, and our mission to support Charity, Culture and Education. If your organization meets our requirements – a 501 (c) (3) serving ZIP codes 46383 and 46385 – please send us an email with a contact name, email, and address to trikappavalpo to join the list of organizations solicited for applications.

Applications are due October 15th and March 15th each calendar year. Please understand any applications for grants received after the deadline will NOT be considered. Please email us with updated contact information if anything has changed in your organization or if you would like to be notified for the next application period.
