Grant Recipients

ACAF manages both designated and discretionary grant funds. Designated grant funds provide an annual income to a specific organization – examples include our Cuba Memorial Hospital and Pioneer Oil Museum funds. Discretionary funds allow the Foundation to make grants to address the ongoing needs of the county. As the posts below showcase, ACAF supports a variety of organizations and projects.
