DARKE COUNTY – Applications are now open for funds available from the Schaurer Foundation. For agencies and organizations in need who serve Darke County, these funds can create opportunities to give back to the local community. One such example is 2023 Schaurer award recipient Radiant Lighthouse Church, who used the funds to pour a concrete pad outside of their highly used food pantry. This pad will be used to facilitate the delivery of supplies to the pantry for those in need.
Organizations requesting funds must be organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, literary or educational purposes or to foster national or international amateur sports competitions, or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals. The organization must be qualified for tax exemption under the Internal Revenue Code. Recipients of distribution from the Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund shall be determined exclusively at the discretion of the Trustees.
Forms for the request of distribution may be obtained by contacting the Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund. The requests must be received BY FRIDAY, September 27, 2024 at 5:00 P.M. The address and telephone number of the Foundation’s principal office are:
