The T.L.L. Temple Foundation is dedicated to fostering a flourishing East Texas by combating poverty and expanding access and opportunities for all residents. Their grant program aligns directly with this mission, inviting applications from organizations committed to this vision. The foundation's support spans various critical areas, including general operating support, project support, capital improvements, and organizational development, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to empowering its grantees. The foundation's programmatic focus is structured around six key areas: Education, Economic Opportunity, Health, Human Services, Arts and Culture, and Environment and Conservation. These areas reflect the foundation's strategic priorities, aiming to address multifaceted challenges within the community. While the overall goal is to alleviate poverty and create opportunities, the specific impact goals within each program area would likely involve improving educational attainment, increasing economic stability, enhancing community well-being, supporting cultural enrichment, and promoting environmental stewardship. The target beneficiaries of the T.L.L. Temple Foundation's grants are primarily residents of the designated East Texas counties, along with Miller County, Arkansas. The foundation explicitly states its service area to include a specific list of Texas counties, and notably, it only funds organizations in Harris County if there's a direct benefit to residents of the rural counties, underscoring its commitment to the rural communities within its service area. The foundation's theory of change appears to be rooted in a belief that by investing in these core areas and supporting organizations that directly serve these communities, they can create a ripple effect, leading to a more prosperous and equitable East Texas. While the provided text does not explicitly detail expected outcomes and measurable results, it is reasonable to infer that within each program area, the foundation would anticipate tangible improvements. For example, in Education, outcomes could include improved test scores or graduation rates; in Economic Opportunity, increased employment or small business creation; and in Health, better health outcomes or access to care. Organizations applying for grants would likely be expected to propose clear, measurable objectives aligned with these broader impact goals to demonstrate the effectiveness of their proposed projects and contribute to the foundation's overarching mission.

The program seeks to support models that are effective in the short term (1-3 years) and leverage a trained workforce beyond traditional specialty-trained clinical roles.

The foundation prioritizes approaches that engage diverse communities and can operate in various settings, such as communities, schools, health systems, and faith-based organizations. The program's priorities include strengthening organizational capacity and infrastructure, connecting care across different settings, increasing access to training opportunities for a diverse workforce, and enhancing the availability of culturally and linguistically relevant resources and materials. The focus is on a trained workforce that can identify, understand, and respond to signs and symptoms of mental health challenges, providing initial support and resource connection. This strategy aims to create a more integrated and accessible support system for youth mental and behavioral health. Expected outcomes include a measurable increase in the number of youth accessing mental and behavioral health services, improved early intervention for mental health concerns, and a more robust network of trained professionals capable of supporting youth.

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) is soliciting proposals for the Northeast Forests and Rivers Fund (NEFRF), a program dedicated to restoring and sustaining healthy rivers, forests, and grasslands to provide habitat for diverse fish and wildlife populations. This initiative aligns with NFWF's broader mission to protect and restore native wildlife species and their habitats, leveraging public and private funding to achieve significant conservation outcomes. The NEFRF, formerly known as the New England Forests and Rivers Fund, represents a strategic investment in the ecological health of the Northeast region, fostering biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. The program's target beneficiaries include various fish and wildlife populations such as river herring, Atlantic salmon, brook trout, wood turtles, golden-winged warblers, New England cottontails, and bobolinks. Beyond wildlife, the program also aims to benefit agricultural producers, particularly those in Historically Underserved and Special Emphasis categories, by helping them design and implement conservation practices. The impact goals are centered on improving habitat quality and connectivity, enhancing forest conditions, and promoting hayfield management conducive to successful grassland bird breeding. NEFRF's priorities and focuses are outlined in NFWF’s Northeast Watersheds Business Plan (March 2023), specifically targeting strategies for Stream and Riparian Habitat, and Upland Forests and Grasslands. Key implementation strategies for 2024 include restoring stream and riparian habitats, improving forest management for age and structural diversity, and promoting hayfield management. A significant portion of funding, approximately $625,000, is set aside for projects that assist agricultural producers in adopting conservation practices beneficial to target species like northeast turtles and golden-winged warblers, while also increasing Farm Bill program participation. Additionally, the program encourages projects that involve community outreach, engagement, collaborative management, and the incorporation of traditional knowledge and community input. Expected outcomes and measurable results include improved habitat for specific fish and wildlife species, enhanced age and structural diversity in forest blocks, successful grassland bird breeding, and increased participation of agricultural producers in conservation programs. Projects are expected to contribute to measurable conservation benefits through community input, co-design processes, and engagement with community-level partners (e.g., municipalities, NGOs, community organizations, community leaders) to ensure project design, implementation, maintenance, and long-term sustainability post-grant award. The grant duration is three years, with projects expected to start no later than six months after the award date. The NFWF's strategic priorities for the NEFRF reflect a theory of change that posits by investing in targeted habitat restoration, improved land management, and community engagement, ecological health will be restored and sustained, benefiting both wildlife and human communities. Funding is provided by a consortium of partners including the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service and Natural Resources Conservation Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Zoetis Foundation, and Sylvamo, underscoring a collaborative approach to conservation. The program encourages a holistic view of conservation, integrating scientific best practices with local community needs and traditional knowledge to achieve robust and lasting environmental improvements across Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, and parts of New York.
