Funding Information

Grants of $2,500 to $10,000 will be made to nonprofit organizations and public agencies for charitable purposes, including programmatic and capital needs. Applications for general operating support may be accepted but generally will be given low priority. Requests that exhibit the greatest community benefit (including requests addressing education; early childhood development; health and wellness; assisting people in need; arts, culture and natural resources; or the environment) will be given the highest consideration.

  • If an organization other than the applicant will benefit from the grant, then the applicant should include a letter of endorsement from that organization.
  • Grant funds should be expended within one year of the award.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Grants may be awarded to qualified 501(c)(3), governmental, educational, and religious organizations serving Rutherford County with a documented history of substantial work in Rutherford County that pre-dates the application.
