Summary

A unique funding opportunity is currently available for community-based efforts looking to create meaningful change in their neighborhoods. This grant supports small-scale projects that are deeply rooted in the needs of local residents and aims to uplift voices and initiatives that may not typically receive traditional funding. Designed to nurture grassroots innovation, the funding is geared toward helping communities tackle social, economic, or environmental challenges through creative and inclusive approaches.


This opportunity is open to nonprofit organizations and groups working with a fiscal sponsor. While not available to individuals or for-profit businesses, it prioritizes organizations with deep connections to the communities they serve. Projects should be located within a specific metropolitan region in the Midwest, particularly focused on underserved areas in both the city and nearby counties.


Funding is intended to help build capacity, support programming, and strengthen neighborhood-level efforts that advance equity, engagement, and community leadership. Whether it’s improving access to resources, amplifying local voices, or supporting cultural and wellness initiatives, the grant is flexible and designed to meet communities where they are.


Typical grant amounts range from a few thousand dollars up to $10,000, and awards are given out on an annual basis. Applicants do not need to have a long grant history or large operational budgets—this funding is especially ideal for smaller groups making a big impact. Priority is often given to initiatives that are led by or serve historically marginalized populations.  This is a great opportunity for grassroots nonprofits ready to lead positive change in their communities with the support of accessible, mission-aligned funding.
