Fall Semi-Annual Competitive Grants

The Cabell Foundation's Semi-Annual Competitive Grants program is designed to support permanent, capital projects for nonprofit organizations throughout Virginia, with a strong preference for the Richmond metropolitan area. These grants are awarded on a challenge or match basis to stimulate broad community support. The specific challenges may include matching the award in a multiple of the grant, raising a percentage of the total goal, securing new gifts, or meeting other conditions set by the Foundation. The grants aim to leverage additional community support and ensure strategic, impactful funding. Proposals are reviewed twice a year during the Spring and Fall grant cycles, with grant periods typically lasting 12-18 months from the award notification date. Grants are generally paid in a single payment.
