Details:

If your organization addresses a need outside of these funding categories.
Grant Information
Annual Grants generally fall in $1,000 to $50,000 range and depend on the funds available for distribution in any given year as well as the nature of each request. If you received an Annual Grant in the prior year and intend to ask for more than you previously received for the same program or service, you should support your new larger request with significant data or reasons to support the increase.
Do you fund operating expenses?
Funding support has been provided only for specific programs and services, except for applicants that previously received funding support for general operating expenses from the City of Highland Park through its Cultural Arts Commission. Given the current circumstances, the Board may, in exceptional cases, fund requests for operating expenses.
Eligibility Criteria
- Serve a population of at least 51% Highland Park/Highwood residents through the program or service for which funding is being requested
- Only organizations that have 501(c)(3) status, have a fiscal agent with 501(c)(3) status, and governmental entities.
- Applicants must provide programs and services that are consistent with the Foundation’s mission of addressing unmet needs and expanding opportunities for all Highland Park and Highwood residents.
