General Operating UPDATE

We want to share an important update!

Effective immediately, we will no longer be accepting General Operating Grant applications.  The decision was not made lightly, as we deeply value the impact these funds have had and the partnerships we’ve built along the way.

As we move forward, we are actively exploring new and thoughtful ways to support our mission and the organizations we serve.

Please continue to visit our website for more updates will be shared as they become available.

 2026 General Operating Grants: 

General Operating grant awards are made to provide one-time supplemental funding to a qualified agency that has demonstrated a budget shortfall. Funds are restricted to operating expenses outside of salaries and must be used for designated purposes as detailed in the grant application. Grants must be used during the 2026 calendar year.
