Grant requests for Outreach donations are due in September. Outreach has moved to a grant format, where organizations complete our grant request form to be considered for funding. The application is simple; organizations are required to describe the work they do, give a budget for the program they wish to fund, and explain how the monies will be used in their program. If you work with or know of a non-profit that might be interested in applying please advise them to do so soon! Our deadline is officially September 1, 2016 though this year we will extend if we are aware of an upcoming application.

To be considered for a grant, an organization must be nonprofit registered 501c3 organizations. We prefer to fund organizations in which we can actively volunteer, or support in ways in addition to funding such as hold a drive for goods/supplies or serve meals. We do not give directly to individuals. Past donations include:

• Homeless services and meal programs
• Women’s shelters and parenting education
• Services for at risk children and teens
• Services for the mentally and physically disabled
• Other programs that provide services to people in significant need
