Grant applications stacked for review
| Community Funds and Field of Interest Funds of The Community Foundation provide a set amount for grants each year, according to a spending policy approved by our Board of Directors. Twice a year, we accept proposals from nonprofit organizations in Jefferson, Shelby, Blount, St. Clair and Walker counties. We review these proposals carefully as part of a competitive process, since we always receive more proposals than we can fund. The final decision is made by the Board of Directors.
Print out and read the grant guidelines and supporting documents below to make sure you have everything you need before submitting a grant. The information also is available in the list to the right.
Before every round of competitive grantmaking (deadlines March 15 and September 15 each year), our staff offers sessions to explain how the process works.
If your nonprofit organization has never applied for a grant from The Community Foundation before or if your last application was submitted more than a year ago, you should send a representative to attend one of the regularly scheduled overview sessions to find out more about our grant guidelines. If sessions are currently scheduled, they will be listed on the calendar at right.
