2025 Grant Applications Submitted

Featured

This month our three grant committees start the very important work of evaluating the submitted grant applications. This year, 42 organizations have applied for our grants in the areas of Education, Family, and Health & Wellness. The evaluation process spans September through November and includes scoring the grants, making site visits, and selecting two finalists from each committee. Truly this work is core to our organization, so thank you to the 30+ volunteers serving this year!
