Designated Fund Grants

Applicants for Designated Fund Grants must be 501(c)3 organizations or units of government that are currently identified as the designee of a Community Foundation Designated Fund.

​

Unless otherwise specified by the fund creator, Designated Funds Grants may be requested for any purpose that benefits the charitable organization.

​

Requested grants must generally comply with the charitable purposes as outlined in the Foundation's governing documents. Purposes for which the funds should NOT be used are:

• In response to annual drives, to eliminate previously incurred deficits or expenses or for debt retirement

• To build endowment funds of the designee

• For religious or sectarian purposes

• For lobbying, partisan political purposes or campaigns

​

Qualified organizations may request a Designated Fund Grant application by contacting FACF Executive Director Megan Hartwick at (920) 563-3210 or facf@fortfoundation.org.
