Grants for Capacity Building, Cultural Arts, Education and Community
GrantID: 6918
Grant Funding Amount Low: $20,000
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $40,000
Summary
The opportunity is available to nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations (or fiscally‑sponsored projects). The grants are not for business entities or individuals.
The intent of the funds is to advance community‑wellbeing through four main “impact areas”: (1) Education & Youth, (2) Cultural Arts, (3) Sustainable Communities (including environmental resilience and housing affordability), and (4) Nonprofit Capacity Building. Solicits competitive applications for operating support or project support aligned with those themes.
Award sizes vary by program, but examples include multiyear general operating support grants of about $40,000 over 2 years for eligible nonprofits in the Education & Youth area. Smaller or onetime project grants up to about $20,000 have been offered in the Responsive Grantmaking track.
The benefits of the grant include flexible funding (often not restricted to a very narrow project), the opportunity to strengthen organizations’ infrastructure or programmatic work, and access to regional philanthropic support aimed at equitable impact. Nonprofits that meet the eligibility criteria and align with the foundation’s priorities may use the funds to scale their work, invest in capacity, or respond to emerging community challenges.
If you represent a nonprofit serving one of those four counties and are working in education, youth, arts, capacity‑building or sustainable community work — this grant opportunity is definitely one to explore further.
