The CLMP Capacity-Building Grant Program offers financial support to nonprofit literary magazines and presses. This program is aligned with CLMP's mission to foster a sustainable and effective literary community by providing resources for organizational development. Grants range from $1,000 to $10,000, specifically $5,000 or $10,000, and are designed to bolster various aspects of these organizations. The target beneficiaries are nonprofit literary magazines and presses based in the United States or U.S. Territories, holding 501(c)3 status or having a fiscal sponsor. A key eligibility criterion is that applicants must primarily publish literary works—over 50% fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, drama, and/or literary reviews—and have published at least one title or issue within the past 18 months. Those primarily publishing children's literature, self-publishers, and "hybrid" publishers are not eligible. The program prioritizes projects that enhance organizational capacity and sustainability. This includes initiatives related to fundraising, marketing, distribution, and web development. Furthermore, it supports skill-building opportunities for staff and board members, strategic and succession planning, diversity and equity initiatives, and leadership development and management training. These focus areas reflect CLMP's strategic goal of strengthening the operational foundations of literary organizations. Expected outcomes include the creation of more sustainable and effective literary organizations, improved staff and board capabilities, robust strategic planning, and enhanced diversity and equity within the literary publishing landscape. The impact is measured through the feasibility of the proposed capacity-building project, its potential impact on organizational capacity and/or sustainability, and the clarity of the application and proposal. Previous funding from the Academy of American Poets and CLMP, as well as the Hawthornden Foundation, will also be considered during the review process, demonstrating a theory of change that values continuous improvement and strategic investment in the literary field.

The City of Vancouver's Community and Neighborhood Grants Program aims to foster stronger community connections, encourage partnerships among groups, and empower residents to take meaningful action within their community. This initiative aligns with a broader mission of civic engagement and local empowerment, providing financial support to grassroots efforts that enhance the social fabric of Vancouver.

The grants target a wide range of beneficiaries within the Vancouver city limits or urban growth area, including residents, community-based organizations, nonprofits, neighborhood associations, clubs, parent-teacher groups, and informal collaboratives. The primary impact goals are to build community, facilitate collaboration, and enable residents to lead positive change. By supporting a diverse array of projects, the program seeks to improve overall community well-being, promote inclusivity, and enhance the quality of life for residents, particularly in historically underserved areas. The program prioritizes projects and initiatives that strengthen community connections, encourage partnerships, and empower residents. Funding is divided into two levels: Level One Microgrants, offering up to $500 for smaller events like block parties, cultural celebrations, or arts activities, and Level Two Grants, providing up to $10,000 for larger-scale projects and ongoing programs such as after-school programs, neighborhood beautification, safety improvements, or food assistance. A key focus is on improving equity, accessibility, and inclusion, ensuring that the grants reach a broad spectrum of community needs. Expected outcomes include more vibrant and connected neighborhoods, increased resident participation in community affairs, and the successful implementation of projects that address local challenges. Measurable results could include the number of community members engaged, the diversity of partnerships formed, the successful completion of projects, and the demonstrated positive impact on target beneficiaries. The program's strategic priority is to invest directly in community-led solutions, operating under the theory of change that by empowering local groups and residents with financial resources, sustainable and impactful community development will naturally follow, leading to a more resilient and inclusive Vancouver.
