Sherwood-Antler Community Foundation Grant

The Sherwood-Antler Community Foundation Grant is administered by the North Dakota Community Foundation, a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization under IRS code 501(c)(3). Established in 2010 through a gift from the Arthur H. Pearson trust, this local foundation serves the communities of Sherwood and Antler, North Dakota. It provides a structured method for distributing charitable funds to projects and organizations that benefit these communities. The grant supports nonprofit entities and government-affiliated organizations such as schools, park districts, and municipalities. Its objective is to enhance the community through local projects that demonstrate strong management, community involvement, and broad public benefit. Grants to religious organizations must be non-denominational and serve the entire community. Funding for each grant generally does not exceed $1,000. While the total funding pool and number of awards are not specified, all grants must meet criteria centered on organizational integrity, local support, and projected community impact. No matching funds are required for eligibility. The grant is currently open and accepting applications, with a closing date set for August 9. Applications are not accepted on a rolling basis, but the opportunity is expected to recur annually. Applicants should review guidelines to ensure eligibility before registering and applying through the North Dakota Community Foundation’s online grant portal. Required information includes the organization’s name, EIN, and the name of its executive officer. Support and development are overseen by a local advisory committee, with Kara Geiger serving as Development Director at the North Dakota Community Foundation. She can be reached at 701-222-8349 for inquiries. While an email address is not provided, further information is accessible on the Foundation’s website. Applications can be saved and completed over multiple sessions through the grant portal.
