Priorities
The Common Council prioritizes programs that provide food, housing, healthcare, or other services to city residents who are of low or moderate income, under 18 years old, elderly, affected with a disability or are otherwise disadvantaged.
- City Residency
- Programs must primarily serve City residents. Individual programs have occasionally been located outside of the City but, in that case, funds have never been used for capital projects (e.g. construction, renovation, or improvement of buildings).
- Low Income
- Programs primarily serving low-income populations are given a high priority.
- Emergency Services
- Programs primarily providing emergency services (e.g. food, housing, and medical services) are given a high priority.
Funding Information
The application must request a minimum of $1,000.
Criteria
In addition to satisfying the Jack Hopkins criteria, to be eligible for funding an application must meet the following requirements:
- Hopkins funds are intended to be put to work in the community as soon as possible
- The program for which funding is sought must primarily benefit City residents.
- The applicant must be a 501(c)(3), or be sponsored by one. In the event the applicant is sponsored by a 501(c)(3), the sponsoring agency must provide a letter acknowledging its fiscal relationship to the applicant. All new applicants are required to submit 501(c)(3) documentation.
- One application per agency, unless participating in a collaborative project.
- Any agency receiving Jack Hopkins funds must participate in the federal E-Verify program.
