The Hannaford Area Community Foundation is currently inviting applications for projects or nonprofit organizations operating within the Hannaford area. This grant program is aligned with the Foundation's mission to support and enhance the local community through targeted funding initiatives. As an affiliate of the North Dakota Community Foundation, a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt corporation, the Hannaford Area Community Foundation operates with a commitment to fostering community development and addressing local needs.
The primary target beneficiaries for these grants are nonprofit organizations designated as tax-exempt under IRS Code 501(c)(3) and government entities. The overarching impact goal is to serve the community of Hannaford by funding projects that contribute to its well-being and progress. The Foundation, managed locally by a group of volunteers, aims to build its fund and recommend grants annually, demonstrating a sustained commitment to local impact.
The Foundation's primary focus is on providing grants to qualifying organizations that directly serve the Hannaford community. While specific priorities or areas of focus beyond general community benefit are not detailed, the emphasis is clearly on local impact and support for established, eligible entities. The grant program does not specify a size or duration for the grants, suggesting a flexible approach to funding projects that align with their mission.
Expected outcomes and measurable results are broadly centered on the positive contributions of the funded projects to the Hannaford area. The Foundation's strategic priorities are to identify and support worthy initiatives that address local needs, as determined by the local volunteer management group. Their theory of change is implicitly based on the idea that by providing financial support to local nonprofits and government entities, they can foster community improvement and enhance the quality of life for residents in Hannaford.
