The Bartlesville Community Foundation is pleased to announce their first Legacy Hall of Fame grant recipients. The Foundation awarded $10,000 in grants to area nonprofits to support their work and to honor the Legacy Hall of Fame families the fund was created to acknowledge.  “All of our grant applicants were outstanding, and we are pleased to pay tribute to the good work of our Hall of Fame members,” says Shawn Crawford, Executive Director of the Foundation. “This year’s recipients will make a real difference in the community.”

All Bartlesville non-profits were eligible to apply.  The Fund serves as a “best of the best” grant award to support outstanding programs and organizations. A grant committee comprised of board members and community volunteers review the applications according to the criteria and recommend the grants to fund.  The board of directors then approves the final grant amounts and recipients.

This year’s grant recipients are: Boys and Girls Club of Bartlesville; Children’s Musical Theater; Paths to Independence; Washington County Affordable Housing Coalition.

Funding for these grants is made possible through the generous donations of supporters of the Bartlesville Community Foundation and the Foundation’s annual Legacy Hall of Fame Gala. See videos of all our Hall of Fame Families.
