Summary

This grant opportunity is designed to support nonprofit organizations, public educational institutions, government agencies, and other tax-exempt, public-benefit entities (not individuals or private businesses) that serve communities in Idaho. Grants fall into one of six broad “interest areas”: basic needs (food, housing, self-sufficiency, social services), cultural arts (visual or performing arts, humanities), education (early childhood, schooling, enrichment, literacy, etc.), environment (wildlife conservation, land/water/air quality, parks, environmental education), health (medical, dental, mental-health, substance-abuse or preventive care, wellness, services for people with disabilities), and rural communities (projects serving smaller towns or rural populations under about 50,000 residents).


Grant awards typically range from approximately $20,000 up to about $35,000 per project. The funds are meant for concrete, time-bound projects or programs, not general organizational operating budgets. For example, a grant might fund purchase of needed equipment, implementation of a new community program, expansion of services, or a time-limited initiative addressing a specific local need.


Applicants are expected to present clearly defined plans — with measurable outcomes and a vision for long-term sustainability beyond the grant period — rather than just temporary or one-time fixes. Because the goal is community impact, priority is generally given to proposals serving underserved or vulnerable populations, rural areas, or addressing critical local needs.


In short: this opportunity is for mission-driven nonprofit or public-sector organizations serving communities in southwestern Idaho, across key areas like basic needs, health, education, environment, arts, and rural support. The funding is modest but meaningful, and is meant to seed well-structured, impactful community initiatives.
