10 Indiana Youth Receive Grants to Help Communities Around the State
In its third year, the grant was designed to encourage students to partner with a local organization to give back to their communities and allowed Indiana youth ages 13 and under to apply for individual grants up to $500. All winners will partner with non-profit organizations and schools to complete their projects.
This year, courtesy of Colts DT Darrell Reid, grant recipients also received two (2) tickets to a 2008 Indianapolis Colts home game and an autographed photo from Reid.
