History
Citizens who live, work and raise their children in Bartholomew County benefit from a special heritage. Thanks to farsighted citizens, this community has been proactive in foreseeing needs and addressing them. Uncommon cooperation between public officials and private leadership has made this possible. It has also been made possible by a combination of public funding and the generosity of private citizens, foundations and corporations.
We who have benefited from the advantages of this community and who have been successful here, have the opportunity to help keep this legacy of care and concern alive for future generations with our financial support.
In 1976, Heritage Fund – the Community Foundation of Bartholomew County, was formed as a community foundation with the purpose of continuing this legacy by providing an opportunity for all citizens to make gifts and establish charitable funds to benefit the local community.
We hope you will join with your fellow citizens in supporting this community through Heritage Fund – the Community Foundation of Bartholomew County.
