The Golden Belt Community Foundation invites proposals for its upcoming grant opportunities. Applications now are being accepted from qualified 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and public institutions, including schools, government entities, and clubs and civic/community organizations in Barton, Pawnee, Rush, and Stafford counties for charitable programs and projects. Funds are available primarily for the health and well-being of youth; however, limited funds are available in many other categories.
In addition to the regular competitive grants the foundation is pleased to announce a new Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Youth Engagement Grant program. The Foundation wants to partner with Golden Belt area youth organizations by offering competitive grants for the health and well-being of the youth in our communities. Establishing these partnerships will empower youth with the ability, authority, and agency to make and implement decisions for their generation. Youth groups of any age in Barton, Pawnee, Rush, and Stafford counties are eligible to apply.
Applications for competitive grants and Youth Engagement Grants must be postmarked by Friday, Nov. 1st. Grants will be awarded at the end of November.
Applications are available online by clicking the Grants link on the foundation website at www.goldenbeltcf.org. Grant guidelines are also posted on the website. Please contact Sue Cooper, Program Officer at (620) 792-3000 or sue@goldenbeltcf.org with any questions.
