Bethel University has been awarded $25,000 through the 2021 Ball venture Fund Grant, sponsored by the Ball Brothers Foundation of Muncie.

The fund provides seed money for initiatives that stimulate creativity and innovation, while fostering competition and collaboration among the 30 private, non-profit campuses in the state.

Combined with the recent LIFT grant, Bethel will use the funds to pursue opportunities for students and the surrounding communities in the areas of engineering and manufacturing.
