Alleghany County Community Foundation Grant

The Alleghany County Community Foundation (ACCF), an affiliate of the North Carolina Community Foundation (NCCF), is accepting grant applications for its 2025 community grantmaking cycle. The application period opens on March 7, 2025, and closes at NOON Eastern Time on April 8, 2025. Applications submitted after the deadline, including those affected by technical issues, will not be considered. Eligible applicants include qualified charitable organizations that serve the local community in Alleghany County, North Carolina. Grant awards typically range between $500 and $2,500. In 2024, the foundation awarded a total of $19,710 through this competitive process. Funding will be distributed from the foundation’s community grantmaking fund. All applications must be submitted through NCCF’s online application system. First-time applicants must follow “Training Module I” to create a profile, while returning users can log in using their existing credentials. "Training Module II" provides guidance on how to submit a grant application. Grant decisions are typically announced about two months after the application period closes. One of the key tools used by ACCF board members during the decision-making process is the Alleghany County Community Needs Assessment, which helps prioritize funding toward the most pressing local issues. Applicants are strongly encouraged to carefully review the grant guidelines before submitting an application, as proposals that do not meet these guidelines will be deemed ineligible. For specific questions or support, applicants should reach out to the designated Program Officer.
