Details:
The Community Foundation is introducing the Grants for Good program in each county to encourage nonprofit organizations to submit a funding request that directly impacts their mission and quality of life for residents in each region. The program application and format mirrors the Foundation’s previous “General Grant Program.”
The Grants for Good program is an opportunity for local nonprofits to carefully evaluate their needs and select a top priority or project where a grant will make a meaningful difference. This program will help nonprofits identify their most important efforts and present a strong grant application with detailed plans and supporting rationale for funding consideration. There are separate Grants for Good applications for each county. Organizations are encouraged to submit one proposal at a time for this program.
Each Grants for Good opportunity features focus areas for nonprofit organizations to select that will help determine a project’s alignment with community need and available funding to support the request. Examples of focus areas include, but are not limited to: Arts and culture, basic human needs, support for children and families, community and neighborhood development, historic preservation, health and wellness and more. Organizations may select more than one focus area in their application.
