What receives top priority?
Grant applications that serve a broad number of clients and community members, that are sustainable, and that improve the quality of services and programs for underserved populations. We also look for grant applications that address a unique community need without duplication of services. Grant applications that offer creative community solutions or evidence of broad community impact and support have a better chance of being funded. If your project or grant application promotes partnerships and collaborations, we find that helpful. When you submit your grant application, demonstrate how your organization has the capacity, governance and commitment to the project.
