KEYS Grants
Fostering Philanthropy in Kosciusko County
Kosciusko Endowment Youth Services (KEYS) is the youth philanthropy program of the Kosciusko County Community Foundation and is comprised of twenty students who attend the four high schools located in Kosciusko County: Lakeland Christian Academy, Tippecanoe Valley, Warsaw and Wawasee. Students are selected to join in eighth grade and remain active members in the program until they graduate from high school. The mission of KEYS is to work together to positively impact and improve education in our community by providing aid, now and for future generations.
KEYS grants are available for educational projects serving Kosciusko County residents. The average grant award is $500. Grant applications are due by 4:30 p.m. on October 1 and February 1 each year. Applications are reviewed by the student members of KEYS and awards are announced approximately eight weeks after the deadline.
