To do great work, nonprofits and municipalities need clear plans for strategic and financial sustainability. High-level planning takes time and resources, which can be a challenge for many nonprofits on limited or restricted budgets. The Nonprofit Capacity Building grant program supports proposals for planning work that helps build your organization’s capacity.

Grants will be no more than $5,000 each and will support the cost of consultants for the activities described below. These grants are meant to supplement other funding, as we understand that this amount is typically not enough to cover the full cost of providing these services. In the project budget, please show the additional revenue sources to be used for this work, both pending and secured. We welcome the use of these funds as challenge grants to secure the additional funds.

This grant program is for organizations with yearly operating budgets under $1 million. We prioritize applications from organizations with yearly operating budgets under $250,000.
