Summary
This grant opportunity is designed to give Vermont nonprofits a helping hand in serving people who need it most—whether they are struggling with housing, healthcare, food insecurity, or other urgent challenges. The foundation focuses on organizations with a faith-driven mission that aim to make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable populations.
The grants are intended for one-year projects and are meant to support programs that deliver direct, meaningful services. Examples include emergency shelter, affordable childcare, healthcare access, life-skills training, and employment support. Organizations that work together or partner on projects are especially encouraged to apply, as collaboration is highly valued.
The funding is flexible but comes with thoughtful guidelines: it should be used primarily for program costs rather than administrative expenses, and applicants are encouraged to show how the project will be supported by other funding sources as well. Certain types of requests, such as capital campaigns, building projects, lobbying, or purely income support, are not eligible.
This opportunity is open to nonprofits operating across Vermont, with attention to projects that have a meaningful local impact. Applications are accepted twice a year, with spring and fall deadlines, and recipients are asked to share updates about the outcomes of their projects.
In short, this grant is meant to empower nonprofits to tackle real community needs and create lasting positive change. It’s about giving organizations the support they need to step in when help is most needed, encourage partnerships, and strengthen their ability to serve vulnerable populations effectively.
