To further promote and support inclusion and diversity in our communities, Illinois American Water is piloting an Inclusion and Diversity Grant Program.

The program will provide financial assistance to organizations seeking to develop and implement programs, training, or community-related projects that aim to promote and foster inclusion and diversity in the community. The maximum grant amount is $2,500.

• Be a new, innovative community initiative or serve as a significant expansion to an existing program.
• Promote inclusion and diversity in the community the organization serves.
