Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $50,000
Summary
This grant opportunity supports community organizations in a wide region of the U.S. Northwest, including multiple states. It is especially oriented toward nonprofit groups and grassroots organizations (rather than for‑profit businesses or individuals) that are led by or directly serve historically under‑represented populations. The intent of the funding is to provide flexible, responsive resources that strengthen organizations serving people who face systemic barriers due to race, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, geography or economic status.
Applicants can use the funds for general operational support, capacity‑building, program expansion and infrastructure that allows them to better serve their communities. Projects that emphasize leadership development, culturally competent services, outreach in rural or remote areas, or affirming support for people across intersecting identities tend to be of high interest. The focus is on helping smaller organizations whose access to mainstream funding may be limited, so the grants are intended to help build sustainability, increase reach and deepen impact rather than fund large single events.
Eligible organizations are typically nonprofits (or fiscally sponsored entities) based in the covered states and serving communities within those states. They must meet geographic and mission‑related criteria, and priority is often given to those with leadership and programs reflecting the lived experience of the populations they serve. The funding is awarded on a regular basis—while some cycles are open application, others are proactive or multi‑year commitments. Award amounts vary; recent cycles have featured awards ranging from roughly ten thousand dollars up to larger amounts depending on organizational size and scope of the work. Deadlines and application structure vary by year and by specific program, so interested organizations should watch for announcements and review the guidelines for timing and eligibility.
Overall, this opportunity is a meaningful chance for eligible nonprofits in the Northwest to access resources that help them build stronger operations, deepen their programmatic reach and advance equity and justice in their communities.
Eligible applicants in Alaska with a demonstrated commitment to LGBTQ+ are encouraged to consider this funding opportunity. To identify additional grants aligned with your needs, visit The Grant Portal and utilize the Search Grant tool for tailored results.
