Details

Description

• As a general rule, individual grants are expected to fall in the $3,000 – $15,000 range.
• Projects/programs must advance Maine children’s health.
• Organizations that received funding in the past, must wait 2-years before reapplying. (If an organization receives funding in 2021, they must sit out 2 grant cycles and can reapply in 2024.)
• Almost all forms of grants will be considered (e.g., general operating support, program grants, capacity building grants, challenge grants, matching grants). However, as a rule, the Foundation would not expect to make capital grants (e.g., funding for building), or grants to individuals.
• Successful applicants typically have strong track records and take approaches that are creative but well grounded (e.g., in data, theory, best practices, evaluation methods).
• The Foundation strongly prefers to fund organizations with budgets under $5 million.
• In general, the Foundation looks for proposals that address Maine’s most underserved populations (e.g., low-income, rural).
• The Foundation will not accept oral health proposals. However, if you see oral health needs that your organization could help address within your broader children’s health work, please connect with the Children’s Oral Health Network of Maine.
