Friday is the deadline for completing applications for a grant from Peabody Community Foundation. The applications should be returned to Sharlene Brooks at USD 398 central office by the end of the business day.

The grant amount will be at least $300 although the amount requested and the types of projects selected will determine whether one or more grants are funded.

Applications should focus on the promotion, maintenance, or enhancement of the Peabody community.

The foundation will award at least one grant to an organization affiliated with a church, governmental unit, or 501(c)(3) organization with a project proposal that has a charitable purpose.

The Peabody Community Foundation was established to assist in providing resources for a broad range of existing and future charitable needs in the community.

The community grant is an annual project of the foundation. The successful applicant will be announced the first week in February at the Ground Hog Day Pancake Feed.
