Most grants require a 501 (c) (3) status to be awarded. Never have
applied for one for cemetery restoration.

Re; Kyle, there has been a fund set up this year to help. Thanks for
that
tip.
I have another question to the list. I know some of you have had luck
with grants. I have never worked on them. We have new class starting at
Purdue this fall and they want to work on grants to help with restoration
of
Greenbush in Lafayette. I'm guessing here, but there are still about 10
to
12 big trees that need to come out yet.
We have had a good year at Greenbush, starting the beginning of
restoration and getting Schools involved. Several different groups have
come
to
help with making Greenbush better. I really enjoy the Community
connections.
This Saturday we will be attending a fundraiser that has already sold out
to help next years expenses. Take a look at the video on her site.
