Harry M., Miriam C. and William C. Horton Grant Program

The Harry M., Miriam C. and William C. Horton Fund was established in 1948 by Miriam Horton to honor her husband Harry and their son William. The fund supports public, charitable, educational, or religious purposes within Rhode Island. It prioritizes projects that address basic needs such as food, shelter, and healthcare, though general operating support is occasionally considered. Grants range from $3,000 to $10,000 and are awarded for one year. Applications are due by November 1, with decisions communicated within 2 to 3 months.
