Community Impact Grants
The Community Foundation for Monterey County's strategic plan embraces a countywide vision of Healthy, Safe and Vibrant Communities. With this vision as our guide, the Community Impact grants program focuses on the people and places of Monterey County, highlighting impact and seeking measurable results.
Community Impact Grants (formerly known as the General Endowment) address critical issues and opportunities in four primary areas that advance the CFMC's mission and vision for Monterey County. Under each program area, we have defined specific funding priorities that build upon our past grantmaking and initiatives, and are based on an analysis of local needs, assets and opportunities for achieving strategic results.
Community Impact grant applications for Celebrating our Culture, Strengthening our Communities and Stewarding our Environment are due on August 2nd, 2013.
Grant application deadline for Investing in Our People is February 7th, 2014.

Updates to the Grantmaking Framework will be available in June. If you are interested in applying for a grant by the August 2nd deadline, please register for and attend one of these Information Sessions to learn more.
