Our Grantees

The Power of Working Together

The West Indianapolis Community Fund—WICF was established because we believe the best way to improve the neighborhood is working together on projects that we develop and finance right here in the community.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, WICF has funded 57 projects in West Indianapolis since its inception in 2009.  These grants were offered to community organizations and neighbors to improve the community and were many times matched with their own volunteerism and dollars. While many of these were small grants they have produced big physical and social change.
