For Grantees
The Community Foundation considers your not-for-profit organization to be a current grantee if you have received a grant through the Community Grants Program (formerly called the Competitive Grants Program) that is still open. Grants are considered open until your organization’s final report has been submitted and accepted.

 
 
We want to hear from you! We invite you to share your stories with us! Did your grant from the Community Foundation have a positive impact on your community, your organization or your clients? Tell us about it, send us pictures, and get the word out about the good work that is happening. We may even feature your organization and its success story with the world via our website or other publications. Share your story now!
