Endow Iowa Grants ~ NOW AVAILABLE
The Iowa Department of Economic Development has named the Iowa Council of Foundations as the lead entity in the grant component of Endow Iowa. The grants program provides matching funds to new and existing citizen groups organized in Qualified Community Foundations to address community needs. All program and application materials will be created by the lead philanthropic entity.
$50,000 is available in 2008 in the form of grants to Endow Iowa Qualified Community Foundations or Community Affiliate Organizations. It is estimated that $50,000 will be awarded to between two and five organizations and the award would have to be matched with local fund-raising. Application materials and additional information is available on the Iowa Council of Foundations Web site at http://www.iowacommunityfoundations.org/page10755.cfm
