The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is offering grants through its relaunched Materials Management grants program, now named the Reduce, Reuse, Reimagine Grants Program. This initiative aims to support statewide efforts in reducing the environmental and human health impacts of materials throughout their entire life cycle. The program's core mission is to build local capacity and foster community-driven solutions that address the environmental, social, and health consequences arising from the production, consumption, use, and disposal of materials. This aligns with a broader strategic goal of promoting sustainable consumption and material use, creating environmental and health benefits, and inspiring innovative projects. The program primarily targets a diverse range of eligible applicants, including local governments, nonprofit organizations (501(c)3 or 501(c)4 status) or fiscally sponsored organizations, organizations created by an Oregon public entity, Tribal nations, public schools, public universities, community colleges, and small businesses of 50 people or less. The impact goals are centered on empowering community action to reach environmental solutions, advancing equity, and ensuring environmental justice by providing resources to historically underserved and underrepresented communities across Oregon. The program seeks to fund projects that offer promising solutions to reduce material impacts, ultimately aiming for a more sustainable future. For the 2024 grant cycle, the program's annual funding area is specifically focused on waste prevention. This priority reflects an environmentally centered approach to reduce the consumption of natural resources and the generation of waste before items become trash or pollution. Waste prevention activities encompass changes in product design, reduced usage, extended product life, or repair. Examples of eligible activities include farmers markets purchasing reusable dishes, establishing or expanding community tool libraries, small businesses adopting new technologies to reduce plastic labels, and stores investing in bulk storage for low-waste products. Eligible activities also include education and outreach, training, research, program/policy development, and workforce development. The expected outcomes and measurable results of the Reduce, Reuse, Reimagine Grants Program include a tangible reduction in the environmental and human health impacts of materials. This will be measured by the successful implementation of innovative projects and programs that embody waste prevention principles. The program anticipates creating environmental and health benefits through more sustainable consumption and material use practices. Furthermore, it aims to advance equity and environmental justice by ensuring resources reach communities that have historically been underserved, fostering localized solutions and building capacity within these communities. The total funding available for the 2024 grant cycle is up to $1,000,000, with individual grant awards ranging from a minimum of $25,000 to a maximum of $125,000, providing significant resources for impactful initiatives.

The Loudoun County COVID-19 Vaccine Equity Program seeks grant applications from community organizations to ensure greater equity and access to the COVID-19 vaccine for populations disproportionately affected by the pandemic. This program aligns with the broader mission of public health and community well-being by addressing disparities in vaccine access and promoting health equity. It is administered by the Loudoun County Health Department and supported through federal acts, highlighting a strategic priority to leverage government funding for targeted community health interventions. The program's target beneficiaries are priority populations identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These include racial and ethnic minority groups, individuals in rural communities, people with disabilities, the homebound or isolated, the underinsured or uninsured, immigrants and/or refugees, and those with transportation limitations.

The James City County Stormwater and Resource Protection has initiated the Clean Water Heritage Grant program, aiming to promote the proper maintenance of privately owned neighborhood drainage systems and private stormwater management facilities, also known as Best Management Practices (BMPs). This program is designed to support the safety and general welfare of all County residents by ensuring these systems are well-maintained. The grant is open to a range of applicants, including Non-HOA Neighborhoods, HOAs with Public Roads, and HOAs with Private Roads within James City County, Virginia. The core mission of the Clean Water Heritage Grant aligns with safeguarding both citizens and property from the negative impacts of runoff. By focusing on drainage systems that move runoff safely through residential areas and stormwater management facilities that reduce runoff quantity and improve water quality, the program directly addresses critical environmental and public safety concerns. The target beneficiaries are residents and property owners within James City County, with the overarching impact goal of fostering a healthier and safer community through improved water management and infrastructure maintenance. The program prioritizes addressing non-routine maintenance and repairs for both drainage systems and BMPs. It offers several types of grants: Inspection Grants, which support inventorying, mapping, and inspecting existing drainage structures for operational condition; Repair & Maintenance Grants for general drainage system upkeep; and BMP Repair & Maintenance Grants specifically for stormwater management facilities. This structured approach ensures that both preventive and corrective measures are supported, allowing for comprehensive care of these vital systems. Expected outcomes include a more resilient local infrastructure capable of effectively managing stormwater, leading to reduced flooding and improved water quality across the county. Measurable results will be seen through the number of inspected and repaired drainage systems and BMPs, the documented improvements in their operating conditions, and the extent to which these efforts contribute to overall community safety and environmental health. The funding structure, with varying award limits and cost-sharing percentages (e.g., up to $6,000 for inspections with a 75%-25% JCC-Owner split, and up to $50,000 for maintenance and repairs with a 50%-50% split), further encourages shared responsibility and investment in these critical infrastructure improvements.

The Pollinator Pathways grant program, led by local conservation partners in Minnesota, aims to promote native plantings to establish key corridors for at-risk pollinators like the Monarch Butterfly and Rusty Patched Bumble Bee. This initiative aligns with a broader mission of increasing biodiversity, enhancing climate resiliency through deep-rooted native vegetation, and providing essential ecosystem services. The program is designed to fund pollinator plantings and inspire DIY projects among Minnesota residents. Funding for the FY24/25 biennium totals $1,100,000, with individual grant requests needing to be greater than $50,000. The primary beneficiaries of this program are Minnesota residents, communities, and educational spaces, particularly those with gardens, as well as the at-risk pollinator species themselves. The impact goals are to establish and connect pollinator pathways across communities, ranging from local neighborhoods to entire watersheds. This will be achieved by creating new habitats and educating Minnesotans about pollinators and ecological landscaping. The program also seeks to foster civic engagement and public outreach to further these goals. The program prioritizes activities that directly support the establishment of pollinator habitat projects. This includes planting beneficial trees, shrubs, pollinator lawns, meadows, and native pocket plantings, with a maximum project size of 5 acres. A strong emphasis is placed on using MN Native Plants and Seeds that are insecticide/neonicotinoid free, ensuring at least three blooming plant species during spring, summer, and fall, and sourcing native plants within 175 miles of the project location. Expected outcomes include a significant increase in pollinator habitat across Minnesota, improved climate resiliency, and greater biodiversity. Measurable results will stem from tracking the establishment of pollinator habitat projects, the types and diversity of native plantings, and the engagement of residents and communities in ecological landscaping efforts. The program’s strategic approach centers on local partnerships, community involvement, and hands-on projects, with a theory of change that by empowering residents and communities to create pollinator-friendly landscapes, vital corridors will be established, leading to a healthier environment for at-risk pollinators and broader ecological benefits.

The ArtsFairfax Project Support Grants program is designed to encourage the development and advancement of the arts in Fairfax County, Virginia, and to serve the artistic and cultural needs of its residents. ArtsFairfax, the donor, aligns its mission with these grants by providing funding to both arts organizations and individual artists for projects that engage the community.

The program specifically aims to engage new audiences in the arts and contribute to the vibrancy and quality of life in Fairfax County. Impact goals include fostering artistic development and recognition, strengthening arts engagement, and ensuring diverse cultural programming is available to all residents, including underserved and economically disadvantaged communities. The program prioritizes activities that are not part of an organization's usual activities, such as designing and implementing new class offerings, bringing in guest artists who might normally be financially out of reach, or enhancing and expanding existing program offerings. The four grant subcategories—Arts in Education, Opportunity, Partnerships with Individual Artists, Artist Teams/Cooperatives, non-501(c)(3) Arts Groups, and Arts Access—each focus on specific areas of artistic engagement and development. Arts in Education projects provide high-impact art experiences, Opportunity projects enable organizations to take advantage of atypical opportunities, Partnerships support collaborations, and Arts Access projects strengthen engagement in underserved communities.

The program prioritizes inclusive participation, ensuring that tribal nations not recognized by the state or federal government can still apply through an eligible fiscal sponsor. This broad eligibility criteria reflects a strategic priority to engage a wide array of community stakeholders in the commemoration efforts. The primary focus of the grants is to fund projects that offer arts experiences, events, programs, and content directly tied to the 250th commemoration. Applicants can apply for up to $10,000, with a required 1:1 match, indicating an emphasis on shared investment and community partnership. The funding, managed as subawards through the University of Virginia and paid on a reimbursable basis, suggests a commitment to accountability and careful financial stewardship.

The City of Virginia Beach's Community Organization Grants (COG) program is designed to award monetary grants to qualified non-profit organizations. The primary mission of this program is to encourage these agencies to provide services that enhance the quality of life for residents of Virginia Beach. This directly aligns with the city's strategic priorities to support community well-being and leverage the efforts of independent non-profit entities in addressing local needs.

The COG program has several key priorities and focuses, including ensuring that applicants are established 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations meeting legal requirements in Virginia, the IRS, and the City of Virginia Beach. A crucial focus is that the applicant's non-profit status must be independent of the City. Additionally, the program prioritizes organizations that are not controlled by a church or sectarian society and do not advocate or advance a particular political or religious viewpoint. Financial transparency is also a priority, with requirements for disclosing contractual services provided to the City. Expected outcomes include a diverse range of improved services for Virginia Beach residents, an increase in community engagement, and a strengthened non-profit sector within the city. Measurable results are derived from the requirement for organizations to provide an unduplicated count of residents served and to fulfill all service, reporting, auditing, and payment obligations.

The Responsive Grant Program at the CFNRV is an annual initiative designed to address ongoing or emergent community needs, as identified by local nonprofits directly serving those needs. This program aligns with the Community Foundation of the New River Valley's mission to support the well-being and development of the region by providing flexible funding that empowers organizations to respond effectively to challenges and opportunities. By entrusting nonprofits with the discretion to allocate funds where they are most needed, the foundation demonstrates its commitment to a responsive and community-driven philanthropic approach. The primary beneficiaries of this program are the communities within Floyd, Giles, Montgomery, Pulaski, and Wythe counties, along with the City of Radford. The grant aims to support organizations classified as 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entities or units of government, such as libraries or schools, that serve these areas. The expected impact is to strengthen the capacity of these nonprofits to deliver essential services and programs, ultimately leading to improved community outcomes across various sectors. The flexibility of the operating support provided is a key element in achieving this goal, allowing for adaptive and impactful interventions. The program's primary focus is on providing operating support, with grants typically up to $4,000. This emphasis ensures that nonprofits have the necessary resources to maintain their operations and address their most pressing needs, rather than being restricted to specific project-based funding. The foundation does not support civic or membership organizations that redistribute money to other nonprofits, nor does it fund programs that proselytize or require religious instruction. This clear delineation of priorities ensures that funding is directed towards direct service provision and community outreach, particularly from religious institutions. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed, the program's strategic intent is to foster a resilient and responsive nonprofit sector capable of addressing the evolving needs of the New River Valley. By providing flexible operating support, the foundation aims to empower organizations to achieve their own impact goals, which in turn contribute to the overall well-being of the communities they serve. The foundation's theory of change implicitly relies on the belief that by strengthening the operational capacity of effective nonprofits, broader positive societal outcomes will naturally follow.

Eligibility extends to individual farmer owners/co-owners or farm cooperatives, provided at least 50% of the cooperative members meet the individual eligibility criteria. The grants range from $1,000 to $10,000 and are available to farms located in specific states: AL, AR, DC, FL, GA, KY, LA, MD, MS, NC, SC, TN, or VA. Funding priorities are given to proposals demonstrating a high expected impact on farm viability and sustainability, strong project feasibility, and comprehensive planning, including a clear plan, detailed budget, timeline, and all necessary supporting documentation. RAFI also prioritizes farmers who derive a significant portion of their household income from farm operations, individuals with financial need, or those located in economically disadvantaged areas. Projects that tangibly benefit the surrounding community and farms utilizing agroecological and/or ancestral farming practices are also highly favored, reflecting RAFI's strategic priorities for holistic agricultural development and community engagement. The expected outcomes of the Infrastructure Grant Program include increased farm viability and sustainability for historically underserved farmers, the establishment of new and diversified markets for local products, and the preservation of valuable agricultural traditions. Through these grants, RAFI aims to support projects that lead to concrete improvements in farm infrastructure, expanded income streams for farmers, and a stronger connection between agricultural practices and community well-being.

The Ursula Landsrath Animal Rescue Fund (ULARF) is offering grants for its 2024 cycle, continuing the legacy of Ursula Landsrath, a dedicated animal welfare advocate. Founded in 2019 as a tribute to Ursula, ULARF builds upon her previous work with the Animal Rescue Fund of Virginia, which distributed over $1 million in grants. The fund's mission is deeply aligned with its founder's lifelong commitment to animal welfare, supporting nonprofit organizations that serve or rescue animals within Virginia. This grant program is a direct reflection of Ursula Landsrath's strategic priority to protect and care for animals, ensuring her advocacy continues to have a tangible impact. ULARF targets nonprofit animal welfare organizations that are incorporated and operational in Virginia, serving or rescuing animals in the Commonwealth. These beneficiaries include organizations working with farm, domestic, and wild animals. The overall impact goal is to improve animal welfare in Virginia through various initiatives, ranging from direct care to preventative measures and public education. By supporting these organizations, ULARF aims to create a more humane environment for animals across the state, fostering better health, safety, and reduced suffering. The grant program has clear funding priorities and focuses. These include spay/neuter and Trap Neuter Return programs for feral cats, emergency medical funds for various animal types, costs for emergency repairs to organization facilities, and expenses for public outreach and education programs. Additionally, ULARF prioritizes Virginia-based regional animal assistance organizations that provide support to smaller, local rescue groups. These priorities align with a theory of change that by addressing critical needs like population control, emergency care, infrastructure, and public awareness, a significant positive impact on animal welfare can be achieved. Grants are expected to range from $1,000 to $3,000 per organization, with an overall size of the grant ranging from $1,000 to $10,000. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed in terms of quantitative targets, the expected outcomes include increased spay/neuter rates, improved access to emergency medical care for animals, enhanced operational capacity of rescue facilities, and broader public understanding of animal welfare issues. The foundation's strategic priority is to fund direct services and support infrastructure that directly benefit animals, rather than administrative or fundraising costs, ensuring that the grants lead to direct and measurable improvements in animal well-being.
