The MCCF Board of Directors strives to understand the needs in the community so that grant funds can leverage the greatest good. Through Nonprofit Listening Sessions and Community Chats information is gathered and processed. In 2019, Early Childhood Education emerged as a top concern and since then, has been identified as a top strategic initiative. The Montgomery County Early Childhood Coalition exists to strengthen local programs in five areas: Increase Community and Parent Education, Improve Accessibility, Increase Program Quality, Improve Affordability, and Strengthen Program Supports. One of many strategies in achieving these goals is a free Professional Learning Series. All early learning providers are encouraged to parti cipate as a means of professional and program growth.

Grant applications will be accepted from any new or existing nonprofit organization in Montgomery County. These organizations must be a tax-exempt organization whose purposes are described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. Grant applications will also be accepted from local governmental entities, such as the three Montgomery County school corporations for charitable purposes.
