The FY2024 CFWC Grant Season is Open!
CFWC is accepting applications for the FY2024 Community Partner Grant Cycle.
2024 Grant Cycle Application
Grant making is at the heart of The Community Foundation of Will County’s work to enhance the quality of life in Will County. We award grants annually to not-for-profits for a broad array of charitable purposes in the area such as healthcare, human services, education and cultural arts.
With our Community Partner Grants, we seek to be a responsive and proactive community partner with the not-for-profit sector. We do not provide general funding for daily operations, but may provide essential administrative costs to launch or conduct the project. Instead, our grants seek to address larger issues of importance in our community, especially those which:
- Reflect a strategic collaborative partnership – not-for-profits working together to address a wider need;
- Address a critical need impacting a wide segment of the community;
- Build the organizational capacity of a nonprofit to be more effective and efficient in how they do their work.
