Summary

This program offers one‑year grants to community‑based organizations delivering comprehensive out‑of‑school time programming—whether year‑round, during summer, or after school. Funded via state support, the grant pool totals about $11.5 million for this cycle . Successful applicants may qualify for renewal into a second year, depending on continued funding availability and meeting performance goals.


This opportunity is open to nonprofit and community organizations that offer youth development programming. The funds aim to drive enrichment and support learning and well‑being through a whole‑child approach, including help with academics, connectivity with peers, social–emotional growth, and access to new tools and technologies. Grant dollars may be used to expand access—such as covering transportation or enrollment costs—enhance program quality, and reduce participation barriers.


Grants come in two levels: one for organizations that operate statewide and reach at least 2,000 youth across a minimum of 15 counties, and another for local community‑based programs serving smaller networks. There is a particular emphasis on serving vulnerable populations such as youth from low‑income families, those with disabilities, foster or migratory youth, and English‑language learners. Additionally, eligible applicants must demonstrate a history of delivering summer or after‑school programming over the past few years.


The intent is to fund high‑quality OST (out‑of‑school time) initiatives that fill geographic or population gaps—notably in counties without existing programs backed by federal funding—and support daily engagement. Beyond financial assistance, the program equips grantees with technical support, training, and implementation guidance to bolster outcomes and sustainability.


Ultimately, this grant is tailored for nonprofits or community organizations in Georgia committed to providing year‑round enrichment experiences for children—especially those facing systemic barriers—and seeks measurable improvements in engagement, learning, and well‑being across the state’s youth.
