Sioux County, Iowa — The Sioux County Community Foundation has announced their grant recipients for 2019.
Fifteen Sioux County projects and programs claimed more than $108-thousand in grants recently. That brings the total grants awarded to over $1.2-million since the first grants were made in 2006.
