Grant Opportunities
In March, Our Community Foundation suspended our regular grant process to dedicate those resources to focus COVID-19 Emergency Response grants. Recently, we completed Phase I of our response awarding 98 grants totaling nearly $1.5 million. The first round of Phase Two grants were awarded on August 24 and the second round will be announce in mid-September.
Phase 2 Relief and Recovery Grants
Round 1 Grant Cycle will be announced August 21, 2020.
Round 2 Grant Cycle will be awarded September 22, 2020.
Phase 2 focus on two categories of grant opportunities:
Programs and Services to Meet Critical Needs – up to $25,000
Operational Support for Organizations – up to $25,000
Given the persistence of the COVID-19 outbreaks and the ongoing impacts of COVID on nonprofits and the communities they serve; we do not expect to have a regular Fall 2020 competitive grant cycle. We plan to use the final few weeks of September to solidify plans for a Phase 3 response.
