Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation (SMIF), in partnership with Region Nine Development Commission, is currently accepting applications for its Inclusive and Equitable Communities Grant program.
Nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations, units of government or public institutions in SMIF’s 20-county region are eligible to apply. Requests of up to $20,000 will be considered.
Eligible organizations are invited to submit applications which allow their communities to build inclusive, welcoming environments and advance equitable opportunities in the lives of all people. SMIF seeks applications which create economic opportunities and prosperity for diverse populations.
Applications which focus on projects serving people who identify as Black, Indigenous, people of color, immigrant and/or refugee communities will be prioritized.
Applications that focus on creating inclusive and welcoming environments for other marginalized individuals will also be considered.
Applications are due to SMIF by October 24.
