The Berrien Community Foundation is hitting the road. It’s launching a grant tour this week to inform non-profits throughout Berrien County about its grant programs and how they can apply for support. The BCF says with so many programs, it can be confusing for non-profits to understand the deadlines for applications. The meetings are being held throughout the county and non-profit representatives can attend whatever meeting they choose. The first meeting is this Thursday at 5:30 at the New Buffalo Township Library. Up next will be a meeting at the Benton Harbor Public Library next Tuesday, also at 5:30. More meetings will be held in Berrien Springs, Coloma, and Niles.
