Summary

This fund is open primarily to nonprofit organizations, tribal entities, and artists based in Alaska. The focus is on supporting projects that enhance community well‑being, cultural vitality, and infrastructure across the state. Different “tiers” of funding are available depending on the size and scope of the project.


For smaller projects, organizations can apply for grants of up to $35,000. These are ideal for one‑time investments such as equipment purchase, technology upgrades, facility improvements, or other discrete capital costs. Organizations with a base in Alaska and a clear community impact are eligible.


For larger, community‑wide projects, there are awards up to $250,000. These may fund construction, renovation, or program expansion that serve a broad segment of the community. The organization should have strong financials, board engagement, and readiness to manage a larger project.


At the top end, grants are available for awards greater than $250,000 and support major capital or strategic initiatives with statewide significance. These are for organizations with proven track records and often require coordination with other funding partners.


In addition, there are artist‑specific grants available: individual artists (or small artist teams) living and working in Alaska may apply for professional development, creative projects or fellowships—grant amounts for these tend to be in the $10,000 to $25,000 range depending on the program.


Use of funds is generally for capital investments, program or project support, or arts development; routine operating budget support, debt reduction, endowments, and for‑profit ventures are typically not eligible. If you are based in Alaska and seeking funding for a community‑oriented project, this could be a strong match worth exploring in depth.


If you are located in Alaska and working in the area of Capital Funding, this funding opportunity may be a good fit. For more relevant grant options that support your work and priorities, visit The Grant Portal and use the Search Grant tool to find opportunities.
