Grant to Nonprofits that Implement High-Impact Initiatives in Florida (USA)
GrantID: 44675
Grant Funding Amount Low: $100,000
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $100,000
Summary
This funding opportunity is tailored for nonprofit organizations serving residents of southern Palm Beach County, Florida (within specific boundaries from Lake Worth Road south to the Broward County line, and from the Atlantic Ocean west to the county line). The program is geared toward projects that are bold, transformative, and designed to make a measurable difference in the community.
Eligible applicants must be tax‑exempt nonprofit organizations (501(c)(3)), and must have held that status for at least three years prior to the submission deadline. The proposed project must take place in the specified geographic area and the entire amount awarded must be used within that region and within a 24‑month timeframe. The intent of the funds is to support a single, well‑defined project (which could be a new initiative, an expansion of an existing program, or a collaborative partnership) that is not simply general operating support, debt reduction, or fundraising. Instead, the focus is on measurable outcomes, sustainability and creating lasting change.
Projects might fit one of several thematic areas, including arts & culture/historic preservation; education; environment & animal welfare; family (children & families); and health & wellness. The funding encourages high impact, visionary approaches, and preferably collaborative efforts between two or more organizations. The award amount for the principal grants is $100,000, intended to empower the selected nonprofit to move the needle significantly rather than maintain the status quo.
The application process follows an annual cycle: organizations submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) by a set deadline each year, and then selected applicants are invited to submit a full proposal, undergo site visits, and participate in finalist presentations. One major grant cycle is completed per year, and in addition, smaller “merit” awards may be available depending on membership/fund levels.
In short, this opportunity is ideal for a nonprofit firmly rooted in the region, ready to propose a high‑impact project that can demonstrate clear outcomes and sustainability, and deploy the funding quickly within the defined service area.
