The Hiram Community Trust is offering our annual round of requests for funding. This is a great opportunity to fund campus and community programs. Funding is competitive. Proposals are due May 29, 2020. Last year, grants receiving funding ranged from $300 to $6,000. The Trust will award over $25,000 in grants this year.
The Hiram Community Trust was established in 1991 through the generosity of Reign Hadsell, a graduate of the Hiram College class of 1926, former principal of Hiram Public School and resident of Hiram. Reign’s generosity to the community continues through the Hiram Community Trust. Since 1991, the Hiram Community Trust has provided over $500,000 for projects that make Hiram and its surrounding communities a distinctive and special place to live. It was Reign Hadsell’s wish that the projects funded by the Hiram Community Trust promote a spirit of cooperation among Hiram Village, Hiram Township, Hiram College, and James A. Garfield and Crestwood Local Schools. Preference for funding will be given to collaborative projects that reach wide audiences.
