Save the date!

(Ripley County, Ind.) - Mark your calendars and save the date! The Ripley County Community Foundation’s Annual Dinner is approaching, and we want to celebrate our impact with the community!

Scheduled for Tuesday, June 25 from 5:30 to 8:00 PM at the Sunman American Legion, the Annual Dinner will serve as a time for us to reflect on our collaborative efforts with the community and the overall success of the past year.

The event will feature highlights from our 2023 accomplishments, shining a light on the positive impact we have made in Ripley County. Additionally, we will celebrate our retiring Board Members, Nancy Durham and Jim Black, for their contributions and dedications to the Foundation.

As we celebrate a variety of our programs, the distribution of scholarships will be at the forefront. Over 59 scholarships among 37 students from Ripley County high schools will be recognized. We will have a special presentation of Corinne’s Believers Memorial Scholarship, Marysue (Luhring) Knisley Nursing Scholarship, and Riley Duerstock Nursing Scholarship with family members in attendance to present these scholarships to deserving students.

We invite you to dress our theme, Country Charm and Literacy, inspired by the recent success of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library in Ripley County - one of the many programs you will have the opportunity to hear about at our Annual Dinner!

Whether you are a longtime supporter of the Ripley County Community Foundation or someone looking to learn more about our mission and initiatives, we extend a warm invitation to join us for an evening of community spirit! RSVP by visiting our website at https://rccfonline.org/ by June 14th. We look forward to seeing our community!
