Summary

This grant opportunity is designed to support small and medium-sized organizations focused on youth programming in areas such as arts and environmental education. The funding is intended to provide general operating support to organizations that have a proven track record of delivering high-quality, sustainable programs. The program prioritizes initiatives that have an ongoing commitment to serving children and youth in underserved neighborhoods, with the goal of enhancing educational and developmental outcomes while fostering long-term community impact.



Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations with annual operating budgets within a modest range, typically under $2 million. The program does not extend to individuals, for-profit entities, or organizations lacking recognized tax-exempt status. Projects must be based in, and primarily serve, the local region, focusing on children and youth populations that may face economic or social disadvantages. Applicants are expected to demonstrate the capacity to sustain their programs over time, with resources in place to ensure continuity beyond the grant period.


Grants generally range from modest to moderate amounts, sufficient to support operational needs such as program delivery, staff, materials, or other essential expenses. The funding emphasizes support for established programs rather than pilot initiatives or experimental projects. Recipients are expected to report on program outcomes, illustrating how grant resources contributed to positive impacts on participants and the community.


The opportunity encourages proposals that align with broader community objectives, including enhancing access to arts and environmental education for youth, strengthening program infrastructure, and supporting equitable participation. While multi-year funding is uncommon, exceptions may be considered in response to specific needs or significant external circumstances.

This grant provides organizations with an avenue to stabilize and enhance their core programs, enabling them to continue serving local youth effectively while building capacity for long-term growth.
