Harrison County Community Foundation (HCCF) was founded in 1996, with an initial donation from Caesars Southern Indiana. HCCF’s mission is to inspire and assist everyone to experience philanthropy, producing positive and sustainable growth in Harrison County. To date, HCCF has awarded over $142 million in grants, scholarships, and other support to Harrison County non-profits and residents.
