The Foundation's annual responsive grant process offers general operating support that provides flexible funding for nonprofits serving our twenty-town region. Application process opens January 10, 2022 and closes on February 24, 2022.

General Operating Support (GOS)

General Operating Support is defined as a grant made to further the general mission and work of an organization, rather than for a specific purpose or project. General Operating Support gives nonprofits flexibility to direct their spending where it is needed most and allows greater focus on achieving an organization’s mission.
