Annual Community Grants Program - Spring Capacity Building Grants

The Annual Community Grants Program offers Spring Capacity Building Grants aimed at enhancing the operational capabilities of local nonprofit organizations, particularly those that are grassroots or led by BIPOC individuals. With a funding pool of $25,000, organizations can request up to $2,500 to support their infrastructure and technology needs. Applications are open from February 1-28, providing a critical opportunity for nonprofits to strengthen their impact in the community.

Note: Applications will be open from January 26 to February 20.
Purpose
The Spring Capacity Building Grant Cycle will support the operations, growth, and sustainability of local nonprofit organizations, especially new, grassroots, and BIPOC-led organizations, through infrastructure and software/technology capacity-building grants.
These requests will not be program-specific but rather serve a capacity or operational need for the organization.
Funding
The maximum request amount will be $2,500 and the CFJC intends to make grant awards to multiple organizations for capacity building support. The funding pool for this grant cycle will total $25,000.
