The Harvest Foundation has awarded $1,689,019 across six grants, with the largest share going to United Way of Henry County and Martinsville. That award, $878,597 over three years, funds the organization's Pathways to Prosperity work on economic mobility in Martinsville and Henry County.

A second three-year grant of $450,000 supports Racing, Community and Opportunity, a program built around Martinsville Speedway's 80th anniversary and Henry County's 250th anniversary in 2027. Other awards include support for VIDA's homebuyer program and professional development for about 120 local educators, along with smaller grants aimed at community health and neighborhood projects.

Foundation president Kate Keller said the board is deliberately funding multi-year work rather than one-time events, so partners can measure results over time. The foundation's next review cycle begins with requests for proposals opening November 12. Guidelines and application details are posted on the Harvest Foundation website, and staff are available to walk new applicants through the process.
