The Marietta Community Foundation is accepting grant applications from charities serving residents of the Washington County Area.  Applications are due in the Foundation's office by 4:30 p.m. on Friday, October 6th.

The Foundation has assets of over $9 million and considers proposals three times a year.

Thanks to very generous gifts from our Unrestricted Fund donors the Marietta Community Foundation is able to operate without charging fees to our fund holders.  In 2005, over $800,000. was awarded in grants and scholarships.  In total, over $8 million have been granted since the inception of the foundation in 1974.

Grant applications may be obtained at the foundation offices at 121 Putnam Street, Marietta, or on the web site at www.mariettacommunityfoundation.org.
