Grants available to Non-profits in Seeley Lake

SEELEY LAKE - As part of its mission, the Seeley Lake Community Foundation (SLCF) endeavors to help charitable groups in Seeley Lake fund projects to benefit the community. In this capacity, the SLCF strives to be a community resource and catalyst for innovative approaches to improving the quality of life in Seeley Lake.

The Small Grants Program supports the ever-changing needs of a community that is diverse and growing. Qualifying non-profit and public organizations are afforded the opportunity to receive assistance from the SLCF, provided the specified needs meet the scope and provisions as outlined in the grant application guidelines and process. The final consideration rests with the SLCF in determining the community’s current needs and priorities.

The deadline for the upcoming grant cycle is June 30.

Grants will be awarded in amounts of $100 to $2,500, based on the availability of funds for the year. The grants will be funded from earnings from the SLCF endowment and gifts from individuals and businesses to the SLCF.

Applications that address one or more of the five areas of interest – Education, Arts & Culture, Community/ Economic Development, Natural Resources & Conservation and Basic Human Needs – will be considered. Project ideas are provided for each of the five areas of interest but other innovative proposals will be considered, if they meet the objectives for broad-community benefits.
