2006 Grantees
PEYBACK FOUNDATION AWARDS $312,050 IN GRANTS
TO 53 COMMUNITY AGENCIES
The
PeyBack Foundation awarded grants to 53 different community
agencies in April 2006 including 28 organizations in
Indiana.
The
PeyBack Foundation, a public non-profit corporation, was
established by Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning
in 1999 to promote the future success of disadvantaged youth
by assisting programs that provide leadership growth and
opportunities for children at risk. The foundation has
donated more than $1,300,000 since its inception.
In
addition to the $150,550 given in Indiana and $46,500 given
in Tennessee, $115,000 was given to organizations in the New
Orleans area. More than $100,000 was raised in 2005 for
Katrina Relief and distributed to 13 New Orleans based
charities.
$312,050
is the largest amount the PeyBack Foundation has given at
one time.
Requests
for grants are accepted from agencies and organizations
actively advancing the welfare of disadvantaged children in
Indianapolis, New Orleans and Tennessee. All requests for
financial assistance are given careful consideration by the
PeyBack Foundation and judged on the unique merits of the
individual agency, its goal and mission. Each organization
must complete a PeyBack Foundation grant application to be
considered. The deadline for the 2007 grants is February 1.
