Northeast Michigan Youth Advisory Council (NEMYAC) Grant - Fall Cycle

Grant applications for the fall grant cycle of the Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan's Northeast Michigan Youth Advisory Council (NEMYAC) grant are due October 15, 2026. Nonprofits with projects benefiting youth in Alcona, Alpena, Montmorency and/or Presque Isle counties are eligible. NEMYAC grants have funded swimming lessons for 20 children through United Way of Northeast Michigan, theater equipment (lighting and microphones) for more than 45 Alcona Community School students in grades 7-12, and a musical learning program in Hillman. CFNEM's affiliates run parallel Youth Advisory Councils - the Straits Area YAC awarded a grant to Cheboygan's Northland Players for set construction, and the North Central Michigan Community Foundation YAC visited Whispering Hope Ranch Ministries in Rose City. CFNEM publishes YAC Grant Guidelines.

Apply through the Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan; see the YAC Grant Guidelines and 'Deadlines At-a-Glance' on cfnem.org. Fall cycle applications are due October 15, 2026.
