The Charles E. Carey Memorial Fund of the Hutchinson Community Foundation aims to support Reno County nonprofits focused on strengthening the community through initiatives in arts and culture, education (specifically early childhood development), and health (highlighting substance abuse prevention and rehabilitation, mental health, and disability supports).
The Youth Philanthropy Council Grants program involves Reno County students in philanthropy, focusing on youth needs. Through this initiative, high school students across the county actively participate in the philanthropic process by identifying community needs for youth, establishing grant selection criteria, reviewing proposals, and making funding decisions. The program distributes around $5,000 annually from the Richard W. Dillon Memorial Fund, considering grant requests up to $1,000, with awards ranging typically from $250 to $1,000, averaging at $750.
