West Central Initiative Grant Application
Opens Feb 24 2025 09:00 AM (CST)
Deadline Mar 24 2025 05:00 PM (CDT)
Description

Sustainability, equity, and civic engagement are vital for a healthy, resilient region. With those priorities in mind, we'll award grants in three focus areas:

  • Sustainability Grants will support community-led projects and nonprofits with a focus on sustainability and climate action. 
  • Equity Grants will support organizations working to make our region more equitable by supporting historically marginalized populations. 
  • Civic Engagement Grants will support nonpartisan organizations that bring about social change, cultivate local leadership, provide community education on government and other civic systems, and encourage participation in public meetings. 

We understand the intersectionality of this work. To simplify that application process, organizations can complete one application that covers multiple focus areas. Only one application will be considered per organization.

Grants will range from $3,000 to $25,000. However, most grants will range from $3,000 to $10,000.

Before you start your application, please visit wcif.org/west-central-initiative-grants for more information, such as eligibility, allowable expenses, and evaluation criteria.

You will need to log in or create an account to apply. Once logged in, you can access your saved or submitted applications in the "My Applications" tab in the top right corner.
