Impact Grants are meant to increase the long-term impact of an organization or program, increase the organization’s ability to reach under-served populations, or enable two or more nonprofits to work collaboratively to create transformative and sustainable community change. Donor Name: Capital Region Community Foundation State: Michigan County: Clinton County (MI), Eaton County (MI), Ingham County (MI) Type of Grant: Grant Deadline: 05/15/2024 Size of the Grant: Not Available Grant Duration: Grant Duration Not Mentioned Details: The Capital Region Community Foundation provides charitable funding to 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations and other eligible entities, for projects and programs that predominantly benefit residents of Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham Counties, Michigan. Who is eligible for a grant? Applicants must predominantly serve residents of Clinton, Eaton and Ingham Counties, Michigan. Must have or partner with a 501(c)(3). Municipalities may also apply. If required, must have a Michigan Charitable License to Solicit. They are unable to fund the following: individuals, international organizations, sectarian or religious programs, endowment funds, existing obligations, debts or expenses incurred before the grant approval date. Criteria  Impact Projects must meet at least one of the following Impact Criteria: Significantly increase the long-term impact of an organization or program, not provide for ongoing operations (routine expenses such as ongoing programming, occupancy, administration, etc.) For example, Impact Grants will not purchase food for a pantry; however, they might purchase equipment that help a pantry stock healthier options to impact the health of their clients. Significantly increase an organization’s ability to reach under-served populations, rather than simply serve more people. For example, Impact Grants are not designed to increase the number of people utilizing an existing program, but rather to help expand a successful program to have greater impact to a new, high-need population. Enable two or more nonprofits to work collaboratively to create transformative and sustainable community change. They welcome applications where two or more organizations are collaborating to implement a solution to a critical community issue. For more information, visit CRCF.
