The Northwest North Dakota Community Foundation (NDCF) is currently accepting applications for its Statewide Greatest Needs Grants, which aims to address diverse needs across all counties in North Dakota. While the foundation does not specify a narrow area of focus, it evaluates each project on its individual merits, striving for equitable distribution of grants across the state's geographic regions. This approach aligns with the foundation's mission to support various community-driven initiatives where funding is most needed, reflecting a broad strategic priority to uplift communities throughout North Dakota without rigid thematic constraints. The grants are designed to support eligible organizations including IRS-designated 501(c)(3) non-profit tax-exempt groups, government agencies (such as park or school districts), or organizations with a fiscal sponsor. The target beneficiaries are the people within North Dakota communities who will be served by these programs, with an emphasis on local involvement and support. Impact goals are centered around the number of people served and the overall positive effect a program will have on the community, ensuring that the foundation's grants contribute meaningfully to local development and well-being. In prioritizing grant requests, NDCF places emphasis on helping applicants with limited access to other funding sources, indicating a strategic focus on underserved initiatives. Low priority is given to projects already substantially supported by government, or those that should be provided for by taxes, as well as sectarian projects and grants to national organizations. The foundation explicitly denies grants to organizations involved in influencing legislation, propaganda, political campaigns, or those that threaten significant controversy, reflecting a commitment to non-political and unifying community efforts. Expected outcomes include leveraging additional support for projects, fostering local involvement, and creating a significant positive impact on the community. Board members review factors such as the potential for a grant to attract further funding, the level of local engagement, and how the program complements or duplicates existing community organizations. Grants are generally $5,000 or less, with a range of $1,000 to $10,000, and while a grant duration is not specified, organizations can reapply annually. The foundation's theory of change appears to be that by providing essential funding to locally driven, underserved projects, they can foster broader community support and achieve sustainable positive change, avoiding areas adequately covered by other funding streams.

Overview: The Google for Startups Ukraine Support Fund aims to provide equity-free cash awards and Google support to assist Ukraine-based startups in sustaining and expanding their businesses, fortifying their community, and establishing a foundation for post-war economic recuperation. Background: Ukraine boasts a robust and dynamic startup ecosystem. However, the nation's economy and its enterprises confront formidable challenges.

Ongoing Google mentorship and product support will be provided. Up to $350,000 in Cloud credits will be made available. Purpose: The fund is intended to empower Ukrainian entrepreneurs in sustaining and expanding their ventures amidst the current crisis. It seeks to support startups in maintaining growth trajectories, resuming operations, or pivoting products or operations impacted by the war and ongoing crisis. Entry Criteria: Must have at least one entity registered in Ukraine. Should be at the post-MVP stage with demonstrated traction (product launched, pilots, early revenue). Companies leveraging AI and possessing a social impact mission will receive priority.
