August 18, 2010 – We are currently not accepting applications for Community Grants for 2010.
Community Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, drawing from the Foundation's available discretionary funds and awarded only to projects that directly benefit the residents of Santa Cruz County.
We invest in organizations and programs that reflect the needs of our diverse community, that clearly identify and set goals for change and that maximize impact by aligning with other local efforts.
• Community Grants is the name for our competitive grants process.
• All organizations seeking a grant from the Foundation should apply through this process. Support from the Diversity Partnership Fund for LGBT programs and the Rydell Visual Arts Fund for arts organizations will be allocated through this single streamlined application process.
• Community Grants are awarded only to projects that directly benefit the residents of Santa Cruz County.
• Community Grants are awarded for organizations and programs working in six broad funding interest areas: Arts, History and Culture; Community Development; Education/Youth Development; Environment; Health; and Human Services.
• Community Grants will be made to support programs, capacity building and general operating needs.
• See Other Frequently Asked Questions.
Organizations that have no applied for funding in 2010 can be considered for a donor-advised grant by submitting a simple form by September 24. Learn more>>
