Dear Friends, INSPIRATION was the tenet that guided the work of the Ripley County Community Foundation in 2019. Our initial burst of enthusiasm was the result of Lilly Endowment Inc.’s (LEI) $500,000 Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow (GIFT) matching funds grant. This gift inspired individuals, foundations, and orga-nizations from all sectors and walks of life to build an enduring source of charitable dollars for the future of this wonderful place we call home. Your gener-ous spirit was ignited by the GIFT VII challenge and within 11 months we met our goal! We ended 2019 with $13 million in assets, a new high for RCCF!
Our donors’ love for their communities has made us stronger and has boosted our ability to be leaders within our communities. In 2019, we granted
$337,813 back into the community supporting: commu-nity enhancement projects, education, arts & culture, healthcare, social services and the environment. Our impact is a reflection of the support we receive from our donors, volunteers and grantees. On behalf of the Board of Directors and the staff, thank you for helping us to Connect People Who Care with Causes that Matter. Your inspiration for creating opportunities keeps Ripley County, Indiana vibrant. Here’s to 2020!

Lilly EndowmentCommunity ScholarshipScholarship Winner: George Ritter
Tell us a little about yourself.
“I am the middle of 5 in my family and am blessed to have such good relationships with each of my siblings and parents. I attended Batesville High School, learned a lot, and made some amazing friends during my time there. I love to be active and my favorite way of doing that is playing sports.“
How did it feel to win the prestigious scholarship?
“I vividly remember the surprise and feeling of accom-plishment when I learned I had won. It was a great moment to share with my family present at the time and quite an exciting day.”

How has the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship impacted you? Has it offered new experiences that weren’t attainable before?
“I had not even applied to Rose-Hulman beforehand and this scholarship provided an opportunity for me that I had not even considered. My experience so far at Rose has been short but very good, and the future ahead looks bright and I owe a lot of that to this scholarship.”
What have you learned about yourself as a student at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology?
“I learned that I can roll with the punches and adjust to whatever life throws at me. I pushed my limits and truly surprised myself academically on how much I can do if I put my mind to it.”
What are your future career plans after graduating college?
“The future ahead still is quite foggy for me, and I am not sure the direction I will want to take with what I have learned here. A Chemical Engineering degree opens many doors. I will hopefully be able to obtain real-world opportunities to apply the knowledge I have learned here with summer internships and co-ops.”

Grant HighlightRipley County Humane Society
Ripley County Humane Society (RCHS) is a no-kill animal shelter. Its volunteers strive to provide a safe haven for stray dogs and cats until they adopt the animal to a forever home.
This year, The Ripley County Community Foundation became the home to a stray cat, affectionately known as Sally, and her kittens. The RCHS assisted us in having Sally spayed and finding her and all of her kittens loving homes.
In April, former recipients of the Ripley County Lilly Endowment Scholarship hosted a community service day at the RCHS. In July, RCHS was awarded a $1,500 grant from the Frank Tarter Fund to repair the driveway and parking lot.
On our Day of Giving, we showed our appreciation by hosting a supply drive on behalf of the RCHS. Because of your generosity, we were able to collect and deliver carloads of supplies, with many items on RCHS’ wish list being met.
In December, RCHS was awarded a $500 grant from the Jim and Sally Morris Family Fund to offset operating costs.
