03 Feb Survey Open for Lindsborg David Nutt Fund Grant Applications
The McPherson County Community Foundation — administrators of the David J. Nutt Fund — has developed a Grant Committee composed of a cross-section of Lindsborg residents, to make final decisions about grant applications.
The Grant Committee is basing their decisions on the vision of Mr. Nutt to nurture the development and progress of the entire Lindsborg community through educational enrichment, quality health and wellness, and community economic development.
This survey is intended for public input, not voting. Those making final granting decisions are especially looking for comments that will improve the granting applications, please take a few minutes to share your opinion here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MCCF-NuttFund2020
