How fun was that?!
It’s been a great two-plus years for the Little Big Idea Grant. We’ve loved seeing all the creativity and fun this program brought out from people who quite obviously love living in Elkhart County.
Here are just a few reminders of how much we accomplished since Little Big Idea Grants started in summer 2017.
