The Capital Region Community Foundation is pleased to announce Impact Grant to increase the long-term impact of an organization or program, increase the organization’s ability to reach under-served populations, or enable two or more nonprofits to work collaboratively to create transformative and sustainable community change.
Donor Name: Capital Region Community Foundation
State: Michigan
County:
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 04/28/2023
Size of the Grant: $10,000 – $75,000
Details:
Impact projects must meet at least one of these three criteria:
- Significantly increase the long-term impact of an organization or program, not provide for ongoing operations (routine expenses such as ongoing programming, occupancy, administration, etc.) For example, Impact grants will not purchase food for a pantry; however, they might purchase equipment that help a pantry stock healthier options to impact the health of their clients.
- Significantly increase an organization’s ability to reach underserved populations, rather than simply serve more people. For example, Impact grants are not designed to increase the number of people utilizing an existing program, but rather to help expand a successful program to have greater impact to a new, high-need population.
- Enable two or more nonprofits to work collaboratively to create transformative and sustainable community change. They welcome applications where two or more organizations are collaborating to implement a solution to a critical community issue.
