Eligibility and Funding Principles
The Community Assistance Grant program invites proposals for projects from 501(c)(3) nonprofits that have been in operation for at least three years, and who deliver services within Fauquier, Rappahannock and Northern Culpeper counties.
Grants are allocated for program services as well as general operating support. This grant award provides unrestricted funding to help organizations with on-going or emergent needs. By emergent, they mean that the grant awards may fund a specific program or project in which needs are immediate in nature and address or alleviate hardship. They encourage collaborative proposals that build and develop community resources and partnerships.
Generally speaking, most successful funding requests do one or more of the following:
- help sustain successful existing programs;
- scale-up existing programs in the number/areas served;
- make quality improvements to existing programs;
- start new programs; or
- make purchases for needed equipment, supplies, or training
Priority consideration will be given to nonprofits demonstrating strong management and a proven track record of accomplishments. NPCF may consider offering general operating support instead of project-focused grants, and/or may offer multi-year commitment.
