The Foundation makes grants to individual Kiwanis clubs and to tax-exempt 501 (c)(3) organizations operating or proposing to operate programs for the benefit of Indiana residents within the State of Indiana.                  

The Foundation makes grants to increase the capacity of Indiana District of Kiwanis Clubs, and Indiana District of Kiwanis supported projects, to respond effectively to the needs of the citizens of the state. 

In general, the Foundation prefers funding for projects that further the Objects of Kiwanis:      
1. To give primacy to the human and spiritual, rather than to the material values of life.      
2. To encourage the daily living of the Golden Rule in all human relationships.      
3. To promote the adoption and the application of higher social, business, and professional standards.      
4. To develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggressive, and serviceable citizenship.      
5. To provide through Kiwanis Clubs, a practical means to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build better communities.      
6. To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of righteousness, justice, patriotism and good will.
