The Twin Lakes Community Foundation is now accepting grant requests from qualified public charitable organizations to fund projects to improve the quality of life for citizens in Baxter, Fulton, Izard and Marion counties.

Applications are due by April 15, and grants will be awarded by May 30.

The Foundation was created in May of last year, and is a nonprofit philanthropic organization that helps generous individuals, families and businesses create endowed funds to financially support education, cultural, environmental and charitable causes in the four-county area.
