Crown Point Community Foundation

As a public, tax-exempt, philanthropic organization, the Crown Point Community Foundation (cpcf) solicits and develops endowed and non-endowed funds benefiting not-for-profit organizations. The cpcf considers and makes grants to our nonprofit partners for funding opportunities including, but not limited to: education, health & human services, civic affairs, preservation, arts & culture, youth development, and religion programs. These grant distributions help to enrich the quality of life for citizens primarily in Crown Point and south lake county Indiana. The grants enable the cpcf to respond to the changing needs of the communities we serve.

Our donors and the Community also support our thriving scholarship program. The cpcf scholarship program provides funding to students pursuing advanced degrees and for vocational studies. In 2023, the Foundation awarded 151 scholarships touching students in need of financial assistance. The cpcf works with donors to insure their donor intention. Working with donors, the cpcf identifies the criteria and administers the scholarships.
