New opportunity from RI Foundation

By Donna DiMichele | February 23, 2018

The Rhode Island Foundation (RIF) has a new, flexible grants program. Responsive Grants will open funding opportunities to more Rhode Island nonprofits and will respond to expressed community needs.

Nonprofit organizations that are interested in applying should be working to address urgent community need, emerging opportunity, to test new ideas, and to support proven programs. The grants will support organizations that may not be working in areas that are directly aligned with RIFs Strategic Initiatives – Economic Security, Educational Success, and Healthy Lives.

Grants made through this program will start at $10,000 and the grant term will generally be one year.  Organizations can apply any time, but are only eligible for one award per calendar year from this program. Responsive Grants are designed to support organizations across the nonprofit sector – including those working in the arts, or to serve children & families, or to provide affordable housing, or to protect the environment. The program will also support organizations that are focused on other areas of need.
