Grant Applications Due February 17, 2012
The Community Foundation of South Alabama has announced the availability of grants for programs that advance the work of creating just and equitable communities. These organizations represent a broad range of environmental, social, economic and racial justice groups committed to enhancing grassroots advocacy and civic engagement.
The Community Foundation of South Alabama will be offering two types of funding opportunities which include Capacity Building and Impact grants through the Social Impact Initiative.
Capacity Building grants will provide support to organizations that are in the beginning stage of organizing to address social justice issues. Capacity Building grants provide organizations with resources to deepen their skills and ability to support their projects.
Impact grants will provide support for organizations with projects that have clear plans for addressing community concerns. Grants will be made to groups that have an organized constituency base, clear analysis of structural causes behind the concerns, concrete goals and strategies.
Nonprofit organizations and government agencies located in Baldwin, Choctaw, Clarke, Conecuh, Escambia, Mobile, Monroe and Washington Counties are invited to submit an application.
