William T. Grant Foundation's Youth Service Improvement Grants
The William T. Grant Foundation's Youth Service Improvement Grants for community-based organizations (CBOs) support activities intended to improve the quality of services for young people ages 5 to 25 in the five boroughs of NYC. The goal is to help strengthen existing youth services by addressing issues or problems at the point of service, where staff and youth interact. In order to be eligible, CBOs must have an operating budget between $250,000 and $5 million, if the organization serves youth only. If the organization serves youth as well as other populations, its operating budget must be less than $20 million and its youth services budget must be between $250,000 and $5 million. Awards are $25,000 each. Download the application guideline, which includes selection and eligibility criteria, required documents, and application procedures, and read the FAQ. Applications are due on March 11, 2015.
