Deadline: 15-Feb-22
The Vermont Community Foundation is seeking applications for its Crosby-Gannett Fund to support endeavors that contribute to the betterment and vitality of the Brattleboro area. To help address the impact of COVID-19, the Crosby-Gannett Fund will focus its grantmaking in 2022 on the needs amplified by the pandemic that have been inadequately addressed by public relief funds.
The Fund is temporarily accepting requests for general operating support from small and/or severely impacted nonprofits. Priority will be given to organizations located in the immediate Brattleboro area.
Funding Information
- Grants will range from $250 to $2,500.
Eligibility Criteria
- Eligible applicants must be schools, municipal entities, or nonprofit organizations that serve the Brattleboro area.
- Grant applications will be accepted from organizations that are located in or serve the people of Vermont. Organizations must be tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code or be a public agency or municipality in the state of Vermont. Nonprofit organizations or community groups who do not have 501(c)(3) status may apply for grant awards if another tax-exempt organization acts as a fiscal sponsor.
