This initiative aligns with the city's broader sustainability, clean energy, and climate resilience goals, emphasizing youth leadership and innovation in addressing urgent environmental challenges. The program seeks to foster a generation of climate-conscious leaders by providing them with the resources and opportunities to create tangible impact. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are Atlanta youth between 15 and 24 years old, who can apply individually or as groups. The program's impact goals are centered on empowering these young individuals to become active participants in climate action, leading to a more sustainable and resilient city. Through their projects, the fund aims to increase climate awareness, promote adaptation and mitigation efforts, and encourage co-governed climate action plans that integrate youth perspectives into policy and decision-making processes. The program prioritizes projects that demonstrate youth-led innovations in several key areas. These include awareness, education, research, and development initiatives such as climate education programs, hackathons, surveys, and public art campaigns. It also focuses on youth-driven climate mitigation and adaptation projects like community gardening, tree planting, waste reduction programs, and disaster preparedness workshops. Furthermore, the fund supports co-governed youth climate action plans, fostering partnerships between city leaders and youth groups to inform climate-related policy and establish youth climate ambassadors or advisory boards. Expected outcomes include a significant increase in youth engagement in climate solutions, with tens of thousands of young people participating in designing and governing projects. Measurable results will stem from the microgrant program, awarding grants ranging from $1,000 to $5,000 to eligible projects.

The City of Denton's grant program supports critical homeless response tools, strengthening the county-wide Housing Crisis Response System. This initiative aligns with a broader mission to address homelessness by ensuring that individuals living on the street receive essential information, referrals, and pathways to housing. The program aims to divert people from homelessness through the Coordinated Entry assessment process, facilitating housing placement, crisis intervention, and follow-up supportive services. The City of Denton acts as the donor for this grant, with a grant duration of two years, running from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2026. The funding range for the grant is between $100,000 to $500,000, with a maximum annual request of $125,450. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are people and households experiencing homelessness, particularly those living on the street. The impact goals are centered around providing comprehensive support to these individuals, ensuring they have access to housing and necessary supportive services. This includes diverting individuals from homelessness, providing crisis intervention, and offering follow-up care to maintain housing stability. The program's strategic priorities are to enhance street outreach efforts, facilitate seamless access to housing through coordinated entry, and address various housing barriers that prevent individuals from securing stable accommodation. The grant prioritizes several key areas to achieve its objectives. These include funding qualified salaries for staff, supporting services that address housing barriers such as critical documents, emergency medication, or medical treatment, and providing behavioral health services. Additionally, financial costs that support diversion from homelessness are also a focus. The eligibility criteria for applying agencies underscore these priorities, requiring them to be 501(c)3 organizations in operation for over two years, providing services to the homeless, and having staff trained in addressing housing barriers, behavioral health referrals, data collection, and trauma-informed outreach. Agencies must also be actively using HMIS and participating in Denton’s Coordinated Entry process, including monthly case conferencing, and operating a current Street Outreach program. Expected outcomes and measurable results include an increase in the number of people diverted from homelessness, successful housing placements through the Coordinated Entry process, and improved access to supportive services. The emphasis on data collection and HMIS utilization suggests a commitment to tracking these outcomes, allowing for a quantitative assessment of the program's effectiveness in reducing homelessness and improving the well-being of the target population. The City of Denton's strategic priority is to strengthen the overall Housing Crisis Response System, and this grant serves as a critical tool within that broader framework, operating under a theory of change that effective street outreach, coordinated entry, and comprehensive supportive services lead to sustainable housing solutions.

The program aims to create a stronger, more resilient community by investing in services that provide fundamental support to its residents.

Non-profit human service providers are the direct recipients of the funding, enabling them to expand or improve their services. The impact goals are broad, aiming to improve the overall quality of life for residents by addressing immediate needs and promoting long-term stability and self-sufficiency. The program's priorities and focus areas are clearly defined across three key pillars: Housing, Survival, and Security. Housing initiatives include expanding affordable housing programs, providing emergency rental assistance, offering housing education, and establishing supportive housing services. Survival focuses on ensuring access to basic necessities such as food, water, shelter, sleep, and clothing. Security encompasses job training and placement, mental and physical health care, drug and alcohol recovery services, support during personal or family crises, and transportation. Expected outcomes include a significant improvement in access to affordable housing, a reduction in homelessness, and increased stability for residents. In the area of survival, the program anticipates enhanced access to essential resources for vulnerable populations. For security, measurable results will include improved employment rates, better access to healthcare and recovery services, and stronger community support systems during times of crisis.

The Ohio Animal Foundation is currently accepting applications for its grant program, which aims to support animal welfare initiatives across the state. While the foundation's overarching mission isn't explicitly detailed, the focus of this grant program on rescue and shelter services, as well as wildlife protection, education, and rehabilitation, strongly indicates an alignment with improving the lives of animals and protecting wildlife within Ohio. The target beneficiaries for this grant program are Ohio-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations that are in good standing, specifically those involved in animal rescue, shelter services, or wildlife programs. The program intends to support services for domestic, companion, and farm animals, as well as feral and community cats. It also extends its reach to wildlife protection, education, and rehabilitation efforts. The impact goals are to provide essential funding to these organizations, enabling them to continue their vital work in animal care and protection. The priorities and focuses of the grant program are clearly defined. A significant emphasis is placed on "Rescue and Shelter Services," which includes a broad spectrum of animal care, from domestic animals to feral cat programs. Additionally, "Wildlife Protection, Education and Rehabilitation Programs" are a key area of interest, highlighting the foundation's commitment to both domesticated and wild animal populations. The typical grant range of $250-$500 suggests a strategy of providing smaller, impactful grants to a wider array of organizations. While specific expected outcomes and measurable results are not explicitly stated, it can be inferred that the foundation aims to see improvements in animal welfare metrics such as increased adoptions, successful rescue operations, effective rehabilitation of injured wildlife, and enhanced public education on animal care and protection. The modest grant size suggests a focus on supporting operational costs or specific, smaller-scale projects that can demonstrate tangible benefits within these fields. The foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change appear to center on empowering local Ohio-based nonprofits to directly address animal welfare needs. By providing financial assistance to established 501(c)3 organizations, the Ohio Animal Foundation likely believes that it can most effectively leverage existing infrastructure and expertise to achieve its goals. The exclusion of funding for individuals further supports this approach, focusing resources on organizations with a proven capacity for impact.
