MANSFIELD — The Richland County Foundation is accepting grant applications from nonprofit organizations for its Summertime Kids (STK) grant program.

The grants allow nonprofit agencies to provide safe, fun-filled activities for Richland County children during the summer months.

Grant amounts range from $300 to $2,500.

Last year, a committee that included Foundation Board of Trustee and community members awarded over $44,000 in STK grants.

Applying for a grant can seem daunting. If you have questions, please contact Community Investment Officer Siera Marth-May at smarth@rcfoundation.org or call 419-525-3020 to make sure a program complies with the focus and guidelines.

The deadline to submit a STK application is Feb. 13. The application and grant guidelines are available at richlandcountyfoundation.org.
