FACT Grant now accepting applications

Posted

The Fayette Area Community Trust (FACT) is now accepting applications for grants to be awarded by the Fayette Area Community Trust Advisory Board. Any tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization in the Fayette area may apply. Organizations that have received grants in the past are welcome to apply again.

Applications should be completed and returned by June 26, 2026. They may be picked up at Commercial Trust Company in Fayette, which serves as trustee of the trust.

Organizations may also request a grant application by e-mail by contacting Janet Jacobs at janet.jacobs@commercialtrust.com or by calling the bank at (660) 248-2222.

Since its establishment in 1991 by Dr. Robert and Mrs. Bertha Mae Barker, the Fayette Area Community Trust, known also as the Barker Fund, has grown to more than $2 million, enabling it to award significant amounts of grant funding to worthy organizations in the Fayette community and Central Methodist University.
