We have taken this action because we know that many local nonprofits are and will continue to face an increased demand for services, as well as operational challenges to meet immediate and long-term needs. Working in partnership with area funders and donors the Foundation will work diligently to identify local needs and gaps in funding then assemble and apply funds where they are most critically needed.
We will be collaborative and strategic in our process based upon the most up-to-date community information and assessments of the situation. We will apply the same level of diligence through this process as we do in all our grant making. Grant award amounts will be dependent on available dollars and 100% of the donations will go to support our nonprofit community. Should the Fund exceed the needed immediate, mid-term and long-term COVID-19 relief the Foundation will restrict the remaining funds for future crisis relief in our area.
As a public charitable grant maker, the Response – Recovery – Rebuild Fund is able to support organizations that meet the following criteria:
Our Response – Recovery – Rebuild Grant Committee will consider the following criteria as they evaluate applications on an ongoing basis:
Applications will be accepted continuously as long as the Fund is open, and grants will be awarded on a rolling basis to allow for the most flexible response to evolving needs. If your application aligns with our funding priorities and is not funded during the next round of granting, it may be kept on file for future consideration.
To simplify the process, nonprofit and public sector service providers that offer community service and are experiencing hardship in providing those services due to the COVID-19 public health crisis should request an application by submitting their organization’s name and contact information to grants@yourlegacyforever.org or by calling our office at 715-723-8125.
