The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida is offering grant applications to nonprofit organizations with a primary focus on early childhood. These grants are specifically designed to support the growth of creative and efficient services for at-risk children under six years old in Duval County. The foundation's mission, as evidenced by this grant, is to invest in early learning centers and provide support for parents as caregivers, aligning with a broader strategic priority to foster a nurturing environment for the region's youngest and most vulnerable population. The target beneficiaries of this program are at-risk children under six years old in Duval County. The grants aim to create a significant impact by improving the quality of early childhood education and care. This includes strengthening early learning centers and empowering parents with the resources and knowledge needed to effectively care for their children. The expected outcomes include enhanced developmental milestones for young children and increased parental engagement in their children's early learning journey. The grant program prioritizes organizations that can demonstrate innovative and effective approaches to early childhood development. A key focus is on interventions that lead to measurable results, such as improved school readiness, reduced instances of developmental delays, and increased family stability. The foundation seeks to support programs that have a clear theory of change, demonstrating how their activities will lead to the desired positive outcomes for children and families. Eligibility for these grants is restricted to nonprofit organizations with current 501(c)(3) status, a two-year work history, and an annual operating budget of $100,000 or above. Applicants must be located in and serving Duval County. The grant size is up to $15,000, with a grant period from October 1, 2024, to December 31, 2025. Ineligible applicants include athletic associations, fundraising event sponsorships, school-based organizations (PTAs, boosters, etc.), requests outside Duval County, and programs promoting religious beliefs.

The Conservancy may fund an action outside the Delta and Suisun Marsh if the Board makes all the findings described in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009 (CWC, div. 35, §§ 85000 – 85350). The Conservancy will fund planning projects, which include pilot projects. Allowable activities for planning projects include, but are not limited to, project scoping (partnership development, outreach to impacted parties, stakeholder coordination, negotiation of site access or land tenure); planning and design (engineering design, identifying appropriate best management practices); and environmental compliance (permitting, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) activities, Delta Plan consistency). The Conservancy will fund implementation projects, which include acquisition projects. Implementation projects are specific, on-the-ground projects that result in the construction, improvement, or acquisition of a capital asset that will be maintained for a minimum of 15 years. Implementation projects are "shovel-ready" projects. Applicants must submit a concept proposal, as found on the Conservancy’s website, before submitting a full proposal. Partnerships are encouraged but not required. There are no limitations on number of submissions by organizations. Applications are received via email for concept proposals and by uploading files to a designated site for full proposals. Awards are announced at a Board Meeting and applicants are informed with a letter.
