Fund Your Great Idea!

The Case Foundation has announced their new program, the "Make It Your Own Awards."

Do you want to make a difference in your community?

And we're awarding grants up to $35,000 to help make it happen. If you're ready to work with others to achieve lasting change, we want to hear from you.
