The Rush County Community Foundation is a tax-exempt public charity that allows people to establish permanent endowment funds within the scope of one large foundation.
There are a total of 200 funds at the Rush County Community Foundation. You can help impact the community today by donating to one of our many funds or by creating your own fund.
Since our first scholarship funds were distributed in 1995, more than $1 million in local scholarship awards have been given to Rush County students.
Established in 2011 in memory of their daughter by Nancy Newton and Brad Hatfield, this scholarship award will assist a graduating senior from either Knightstown Community High School or Rushville Consolidated High School with continuing education expenses. The recipient must have a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or above on a 4.0 scale.
