Grant Application Deadlines to Change in 2023

Published: December 13, 2022 | By: Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation | Category:

To better align grant opportunities with the fiscal years of nonprofits, the Community Foundation is making changes to the number and timing of grant deadlines in 2023.

The 2023 grant deadlines will be March 1, June 30, and September 12. The Community Foundation’s competitive grant deadlines will be March 1 and September 12. Some Competitive Donor-Advised Funds will accept applications in the summer on June 30.

2023 Competitive Grant Programs:

The competitive grant programs are supported by the Greater Good Fund and other Field of Interest funds, and are designed to support a wide range of programs, projects, and organizations. While organizations will have four grant opportunities per year between Program Support Grants and Organization Support Grants, they will be limited to two active grants from these funds at any given time.
