Summary
This grant is designed to support nonprofit organizations with projects that improve quality of life, especially those focusing on youth, education, childhood development, or senior services. It is administered by a regional community foundation as part of its local competitive grantmaking.
Eligibility is confined to nonprofits (public charities with tax‑exempt status). Individuals or for‑profit entities are not eligible. Applicants must propose defined projects (rather than general fundraising, debt reduction, or endowment contributions) and show how the work will produce sustainable, measurable impacts in the community. Projects with explicit religious teaching or proselytization components, or ones that exclude participants on religious grounds, are typically not funded.
Grant awards generally range between $1,000 and $10,000 per project, for a one‑year funding period. Organizations submit proposals during a competitive cycle; reviewers evaluate based on alignment with local needs, feasibility, clarity of outcomes, and capacity to execute. Awards are announced after review, and grantees are expected to deliver progress reporting, outcome measures, and responsible use of funds within the grant year.
Organizations and individuals based in Tennessee who are engaged in Non-Profit Support Services may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
