The Maine Women’s Giving Tree (MWGT) offers grants ranging from $3,000 to $15,000 to nonprofit organizations that align with its mission to address significant community needs. The grant process follows a two-step application procedure, beginning with the submission of a one-page Letter of Intent (LOI). Eligible organizations must have 501(c)(3) status, serve communities specified in MWGT's mission, and demonstrate clear goals with measurable outcomes. LOIs are due by November 15, 5:00 PM, and selected organizations will be invited to submit a full grant application by February 28.
The application review includes a screening by an Objective Review Committee, with final grantee selections voted on by MWGT members in May. Award notifications and an awards ceremony will follow in the same month. For inquiries, applicants can contact MWGT at grants@mainewomensgivingtree.org.
