Rushville Republican--New fund to promote youth philanthropy: "New fund to promote youth philanthropy
Garry Cooley, executive director of the Rush County Community Foundation, has announced that a new fund has been established at the Foundation.
'The 'Youth in Philanthropy Fund' has been established with a generous donation from Rick and Betsy Williams as a way to encourage and educate the young people of our county in the philanthropic process,' Cooley said. 'The proceeds from this fund are to be used toward a Rush County public service project and would be available to any organized youth organization in Rush County. It is intended that the grant application be completed by the youth and overseen by their adult leader. If fundraising is a part of the project then a portion of the proceeds should be returned to the Endowed portion of this fund in order to help future organizations.'"
