<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%> The Community Foundation - Funding Opportunities

Home

October 1 of each year begins our new grant making period. A variety of grants are available to nonprofits that have a 501(c)(3), government entities and religious organizations that are located in the following counties: Mobile, Baldwin, Clarke, Conecuh, Washington, Choctaw, Escambia and Monroe. After reading through our grant initiatives under FAQ's, you must discern which initiative best fits your grant request, making sure you meet all the criteria.

It is best to submit grant applications as a response to announcements at the beginning of a grant initiative process, noting the deadlines. The Community Foundation cannot accept unsolicited applications that do not clearly meet the criteria of a specific grant initiative.
