2022 Grant Submissions: LOI Deadline Extended

,

We haven’t had a single conversation lately without hearing some form of, “Wow, there’s a lot happening in the world,” and “we’re so, so busy right now.” Locally, domestically, globally, the world has felt heavy of late, and we know what a toll that can take on those working in this sector, on top of usual workloads and capacity stretching and whatnot.

With all of that in mind, we’re bumping our original March 15th deadline for LOI submissions out to April 15th in hopes of allowing for more breathing room and space for those wishing to apply for 2022 funding. If we can support your application efforts in any way, or if you have questions on the process, eligibility, or anything else, please don’t hesitate to be in touch.

More information about our 2022 grant cycle is available on our website.

Our 2020 Major Grants Process is now open! We are looking for organizations who bring an excitement and passion to their work, and who are working to break the cycle of poverty by addressing or removing the root causes of systemic barriers to health, safety, shelter and opportunity in the communities where we work and live: Frederick County, Baltimore County, Baltimore City, and Anne Arundel County.

If that sounds like you, we'd encourage you to submit an LOI for our Spring 2018 Grant Cycle. We are offering grants for general operating support, program-specific support, and capacity building initiatives specifically.

Grant Partner Survey Results & Key Takeaways

As part of our commitment to learning from our grant partners and continuing to grow and adapt as an organization, we recently distributed a survey to all of our past grant partners asking for feedback about our process and approach. Twenty-five partners responded, completely anonymously, and in the interest of full transparency, we’re capturing the response summaries below and sharing them here. In addition to responses, we’ve highlighted throughout where we have concrete plans to make changes, and where we acknowledge we need to make such plans (but have yet to finalize anything).
