Focus Area
The Community Impact Fund is a responsive, open, competitive application process with one annual deadline. The Foundation considers funding for both general operating support and program support. Organizations are eligible to request funding annually. Prior recipients may reapply after a final report has been submitted to the Foundation.
The Fund makes grants in the following four areas:
1) Arts & Culture: Organizations must present, produce, or provide arts programming for the public; art forms supported can be dance, design, folk arts, literature, media arts, music, opera, performance arts, theatre, public art, and visual arts. Organizations or projects that promote and/or preserve the region’s history and culture also fit into this category.
2) Basic Needs: Organizations must address hunger, poverty, housing, literacy, homelessness, family violence, addiction, mental illness, the needs of seniors, the needs of veterans, the needs of those with disabilities or with chronic illness, lack of access to basic medical care, and animal welfare.
3) Environment: Organizations and programs must address environmental stewardship and/or education. Nature education, energy and water conservation, land stewardship, wildlife protection, recycling and repurposing, and maintaining dark skies are all priorities that will be considered.
4) Youth Development: Organizations and programs that work with children and youth, from birth through age 21, are eligible. All types of youth development – from after school programming, STEM activities, youth sports, or educational programming will be considered.
