Funding for Programs That Support Their Career Growth in Colorado (USA)
GrantID: 74899
Grant Funding Amount Low: $500
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $500
Summary
This opportunity offers modest but impactful funding for individuals who have previously taken part in a leadership-oriented program focused on cultural equity. It is intended to help cover the costs of professional development—such as workshops, training materials, or other resources—that support continued growth in creative, cultural, or leadership practices.
Grant applicants must be individuals—not organizations or businesses—and must reside within the United States (including certain U.S. territories). Selection is limited to alumni of specific leadership or artist support networks, ensuring that the benefit goes to those already connected to past development initiatives.
Award amounts vary, but most grants average in the lower hundreds of dollars—or occasionally exactly as requested within reason. The total funding pool for this opportunity for the year is in the low tens of thousands of dollars.
Applications are typically accepted during a defined window in the fall, with successful applicants using the funds over a one-year period spanning autumn through the next summer. The process is designed for relatively quick turnaround, allowing recipients to engage in their chosen development activity fairly soon after being awarded.
This grant is well-suited to creative practitioners or cultural leaders looking for flexible support to access new learning or tools for their work. It intentionally remains small-scale and manageable, encouraging modest but strategic investments in one’s growth. By offering reimbursement support, the fund helps lower the barrier for alumni to continue pursuing their professional development, creating pathways to build capacity and sustain creative practice or leadership in culturally meaningful ways.
Organizations and individuals based in Colorado who are engaged in Financial Assistance may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
