Grow Your Impact Grant

The Greater Grand Island Community Foundation's Capacity Building Grant program is designed to bolster the effectiveness of nonprofit organizations within the Hall County area. This initiative seeks proposals during the fall each year, offering grants up to $10,000 based on recommendations by the Foundation's Distribution Committee and approval by the Board of Trustees. The program aims to fund projects that enhance organizational capabilities and effectiveness, excluding costs related to individuals, religious or political purposes, endowments, capital campaigns, annual fund drives, vehicles, furniture, ongoing operational or program delivery costs, consumable supplies, or food/beverages for meetings/events. Limited circumstances may allow for staff salaries under specific conditions. The program encourages applications for board training, critical equipment, staff training, strategic planning, technology/software upgrades, organizational mergers for sustainability, and other capacity-improving consultations Grant applications are available all year, and reviewed quarterly.
