COLUMBUS, Ind. – Heritage Fund announced Tuesday that it has received a Lilly Endowment Inc. Large-Scale Community Leadership Grant totaling $3,498,824, from the “Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow” initiative.
The grant will enhance Landmark Columbus Foundation’s programs, including an in-depth survey and inventory of the cultural resources in the county, while the organization continues to activate the city’s downtown through its award-winning, Exhibit Columbus.
“We are thrilled by this generous Lilly Endowment grant. It speaks to the importance of what makes our community so attractive to employers, talented individuals, design experts, and those who seek a quality of life not typically found in a midsize Midwest city,” said Landmark Columbus Foundation Board President Rick Johnson.
