The Community Foundation of the North State has opened its Fall competitive grant cycle featuring
three grant funds – The Women’s Fund, The Animal Welfare Endowment Fund, and the Redding
Rancheria Community Fund. Last year, these funds cumulatively granted over $175,000 to area
nonprofits.
The Women’s Fund focuses on bolstering organizations that support women and children in the
Redding area. The Animal Welfare Endowment Fund grants to organizations in Shasta, Siskiyou, and
Tehama counties. The Redding Rancheria Community Fund, which supports a broad number of causes
in Shasta and Trinity counties is awarding grant dollars for general operating support. The grant
application period is currently open and closes on various dates in September and early October. A
grants workshop will be held on August 20th via Zoom at 2pm to give an overview of available
opportunities.
“We’re so excited to be opening another grant cycle and learning more about the needs facing our
local nonprofits,” said Justine Lehman, Community Foundation Program Officer. “These grant funds
have been established by local benefactors and provide funds to local organizations. It’s truly about
enriching our North State communities.”
For more information about additional grant opportunities, please contact Program Officer Justine
