Spring Community Building Grant opportunity offered
GBCF new logo

 The Golden Belt Community Foundation invites proposals for its competitive grant cycle focused on building communities through the Spring Community Building Grants. These funds support a wide-variety of needs in Barton, Pawnee, Rush, and Stafford counties that serve the community at large including, but not limited to, quality of life improvements, arts and culture, enhancing community destination points, charitable economic opportunity and planning and development.

These projects can leverage grants and/or funds received from other resources, according to information from the foundation.  

Applications are  now being accepted from qualified 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and public institutions, including schools, government entities and other charitable organizations. Applications are available online by clicking “Receive,” and then “Grants” on the foundation website at www.goldenbeltcf.org. Grant guidelines also are posted on the website. 

Applications must be postmarked by Tuesday, April 1. Grants will be awarded by the middle of May. 

For questions about grants, contact Teresa Powelson, program officer, at 620-792-3000 or email teresa@goldenbeltcf.org.
