5th round of Elevation Grant recipients announced in Indianapolis [Video]

INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett, along with the Indianapolis Foundation and the Indianapolis City-County Council, announced the fifth round of grantees receiving funding through the Elevation Grant Program.

More than $5.1 million in grants will be distributed to 27 Indianapolis organizations. The funding supports local, grassroots nonprofits working to address root causes of violent crime.

“We know that safety comes, in part, from the prevention and prosecution of crime. But it extends equally from the active promotion of resilient neighborhoods,” Hogsett said. “The entire $5 million invested in the awardees today will address root causes of crime and violence in our neighborhoods including housing, employment, educational attainment, and social mobility.”
