Grants
The Community Foundation makes grants through both competitive and non-competitive grantmaking programs.
Non-competitive grantmaking programs have no application process. Grants are awarded based on the recommendation of the advisors to the various funds.
Competitive grantmaking programs accept applications for funding and award grants on the basis of merit and compatibility with the goals of the program. The following information applies only to competitive grantmaking programs.
Because the Foundation is nonsectarian, it does not support religious programming through competitve grants. It does, however, support religious organizations serving the community through projects and programs that address the goals and objectives of the Foundation's grantmaking inititiatives.
