The Sugar Bush Foundation is now accepting Letters of Inquiry for the 2025-2026 funding year.

The Sugar Bush Foundation, a supporting organization of the Ohio University Foundation, engages OHIO students in the region by funding collaborations between OHIO and area non-profits.

Since its founding, the Sugar Bush Foundation has awarded more than $4.8 million to projects that impact Appalachian Ohio.

Letters of Inquiry are due by 11:59 pm on Nov. 30, 2024. The Letters of Inquiry form and instructions can be found on the Sugar Bush Foundation website at https://give.ohio.edu/advancement/sugar-bush/funding.
