Some grants focus specifically on nonprofit organizations, providing support for professional development, strategic planning, and operational growth. These programs can help organizations improve systems, expand services, or plan for long-term sustainability, while smaller opportunities may assist with specific training or community initiatives.


Other grants are designed with flexible uses in mind, allowing nonprofits, educational institutions, or government partners to address emerging needs or pursue new projects that enhance local well-being.
