Several years ago, we recognized the need for ongoing funding opportunities outside of our partner agency grants. This led to the establishment of our Impact Fund, a pool of funds set aside for smaller projects and initiatives. The Impact Fund allows us to be more responsive to needs as they arise and further our impact in Cass County.
Organizations are able to apply at any time throughout the year, and applications are reviewed by staff and our volunteer committee. Requests must still align with our priorities: Youth Opportunity, Healthy Community, and Financial Security.
