CACF Community Trust Grants

Fact (page-stated): The Central Alabama Community Foundation (CACF) awards annual Community Trust Grants to nonprofit organizations serving the River Region — Autauga, Elmore, Lowndes, Macon and Montgomery counties. Grant cycles cover Family Wellness/Food/Medical, Education, and Arts & Community Building (Cultural & Community Enhancement). Three grant types are offered depending on the location of services: Community Trust Grant, Field of Interest Grant, and Technical Assistance Grant. Fact (from 2025–2026 award announcements): individual awards have ranged roughly $1,000–$25,000. Assumption: applications historically open in winter (a past cycle closed early February). Regional affiliates (East Alabama, Elmore County, Autauga Area, Southeast Alabama) run parallel Community Trust cycles.
