About Steuben County Community Foundation
In 1992, a group of concerned citizens created the Steuben County Community Foundation- a formalized and organized way to make charitable gifts that will work to address the emerging issues and concerns of Steuben County forever. To this day, its purpose is to promote and preserve the lifestyle and assets of our community for current and future generations. By partnering with our donors, we have helped strengthen education, support the arts, promote civic life, protect our environment, and ensure strong health and social services.

To date, the SCCF holds hundreds of endowed funds, over 16 million in assets, and has granted millions of dollars back to the community. We are one of 94 Indiana community foundations that together hold assets of over $1 billion, and have made grants to communities of more than $50 million.

Free Workshops for Nonprofits
As a direct result of information gathered during focus group sessions earlier this year, the Foundation has developed a FREE Technical Assistance Program for use by both non-profits and community groups (some restrictions apply). See the schedule below:

Leadership Academy- presented in cooperation with the Freedom Academy and the Angola Area Chamber of Commerce. Through a series of eight half-day sessions, participants will learn about their community and build leadership qualities such as interpersonal communication, creative problem solving, diversity, effective meetings & presentations, networking, and personal missions. Registration is limited to 20 participants.

Board Development Series- presented by the Indiana Nonprofit Resource Network is a one-half day workshop to help develop volunteer leadership in areas of policy and governance. As an extra benefit, for organizations enrolling at least three board members, the Foundation will provide 14 books on Governance and Committee responsibilities (a $182 value).
