Summary
Grants dedicated to empowering non-profit organizations by providing crucial financial support within four key priority areas. These areas include fostering economic opportunity to build a more equitable and prosperous community, promoting environmental and climate initiatives to ensure a sustainable future, addressing critical needs in housing to increase stability and access, and investing in youth well-being to cultivate the next generation of thriving citizens. Through targeted funding, this program aims to strengthen the vital work.
Supports community‑driven efforts that center racial equity, constituent engagement, and reducing disparities across social, economic, and environmental domains. Funding supports programs in four strategic areas: economic opportunity, environment & climate, housing, and youth well‑being. Projects might include job training, clean energy or air‑quality initiatives, affordable housing strategies, or youth mental‑health and educational equity efforts.
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofits, indigenous groups, and informal resident teams (for smaller awards). Neighborhood‑based coalitions of at least three people can qualify for smaller grants (ranging from $500 to $5,000) under a companion funding stream.
Funds are intended for general operating support, community initiatives, or project‑specific uses—covering staff, materials, outreach, or implementation costs. Capital campaigns, individual scholarships, debt retirement, or purely academic research are typically excluded.
