Grantmaking Guidelines
- Grants are made to 501(c)(3) organizations in the Greater Lansing, Michigan area.
- Typical grants range up to $10,000.
- We offer challenge grants to encourage nonprofits to broaden and strengthen their fundraising.
- Due to the enormous needs and limited funds, grant support focuses on community-based education programs that benefit children and families, animal welfare, and environmental issues.
- We generally do not supply building or endowment funding, college scholarships, religious organizations, individual aid, or salaries/benefits.
- Grant applications require a budget of the project to be supplied, please download and use our budget template below.
