Community Opportunities

Proposals to the Community Opportunities program must meet one or more of the following criteria/scenarios:

1. An emergency that immediately impacts an organization’s ability to serve their clients. Funding, either alone or with other secured funds, must solve the crisis. Funds are not intended to be used for standard operating expenses.
2. An unforeseen, time-sensitive opportunity that will benefit a broad constituency beyond the applying organization and its clients.

3. An opportunity to leverage matching grant dollars for a charitable activity.

1. Applicants may request up to $5,000 in each application.

    

2. Organizations can receive one Community Opportunities grant annually and may not apply in two consecutive years.

    

3. All applications are subject to CFNIL’s Community Grant Eligibility and Requirements guidelines.

    

4. Due to limited funding capacity, Community Opportunities grants are unavailable for funding losses.
