CFGFW Rising Together Grants : Everyone's Economy Program

The CFGFW Rising Together Grants aim to foster an inclusive economy, providing support for operational funding to enhance well-being and quality of life for all residents. Funded by the Paul Clarke Endowment and the Community Impact Fund, these grants align with the strategic vision of upward mobility and security for various groups, including those focused on workforce development and basic needs. The initiative reflects a commitment to community growth and engagement.

Vision Plan resulted from rigorous strategic planning the Community Foundation embarked on in 2019. The Rising Together Grants align with our strategic plan and our vision for this Community to be a place where all our neighbors experience greater well-being and quality of life. These signature grants align with each pillar in our “Let’s Rise!” Vision Plan and are funded through the Paul Clarke Endowment and the Community Impact Fund. The grant cycle includes five windows; each window is aligned with a pillar. The Rising Together Grant Program is exclusively for operational funding.
Examples of groups that fit within this category are workforce development, housing, and basic needs.
