Grants & Scholarships

Grants
Since 1988, the Community Foundation of Greater Flint has awarded more than $80 million in grants to the greater Flint area from over 370 charitable funds. Most grants are made to public charities: organizations recognized as tax exempt under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code, schools and universities, churches, synagogues and mosques, and governmental entities. Under certain circumstances, grants are made to private charities, supporting organizations and non-charities.

Interested parties are strongly encouraged to contact the Community Foundation prior to submitting a grant application. Please call the Community Foundation, 810-767-8270 to speak to a program officer.
