The Scanlan Foundation offers grants to Catholic religious, charitable, and educational institutions exclusively within Texas. Its core mission is to foster a culture of vocations, guiding all strategic decisions, giving, and relationship-building efforts. This foundational commitment is supported by five key pillars of funding, each designed to align with and further the foundation's overarching spiritual and community-focused objectives. The foundation's theory of change is rooted in strengthening the Catholic faith and its institutions at various levels, from individual formation to community-wide impact. One of the primary pillars is "Vocations To The Priesthood And Religious Life," with the explicit goal of increasing the number of men and women answering their call to join the priesthood and religious life. This initiative targets individuals discerning a religious vocation, aiming to support their journey and bolster the future leadership of the Catholic Church. Another crucial area is "Marriage & Holy Families," which seeks to encourage sacramental marriage preparedness for engaged couples and strengthen existing marriages, recognizing their vital role as the "Domestic Church." The foundation expects these efforts to result in more robust faith-filled families and a stronger social fabric within the Catholic community. "Catholic Education" is another significant focus, with goals to enhance access for families who value faith-based education but face financial barriers, improve teacher faith-formation, and develop strong campus ministries. The target beneficiaries are students, teachers, and campus communities within Catholic educational institutions across Texas. The expected outcomes include a more accessible and spiritually enriching educational environment, better-prepared educators, and vibrant campus ministries that foster faith development among young people. This pillar reflects the foundation's strategic priority of investing in the future of the Church through education. The "Evangelization & Discipleship" pillar aims to form missionary disciples, particularly on college campuses in Texas, and to foster personal holiness and promote individual faith formation. This involves engaging young adults in their faith journey and equipping them to share the Gospel. Furthermore, the "Life & Human Dignity" pillar is dedicated to assisting the poor, sick, and vulnerable, promoting faith-based therapy, and strengthening the culture of life. These efforts collectively target those in need and seek to uphold the inherent dignity of every human person, reflecting a comprehensive approach to charitable giving and social impact. Across all its funding pillars, the Scanlan Foundation prioritizes expressly Catholic 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations in Texas that align with its mission. The foundation's strategic priorities are clearly articulated through the specific goals of each pillar, emphasizing measurable results such as increased vocations, strengthened marriages, enhanced educational access, and improved support for vulnerable populations. The ultimate expected outcomes are a more vibrant, resilient, and faithful Catholic community in Texas, nurtured through targeted support and strategic partnerships.

This grant program is designed to fund projects that align with and support the objectives of the Recycling Enhancement Act. The core mission is to enhance existing resources, tools, or methodologies, or to create new ones, all in furtherance of the REA's goals. This initiative demonstrates a strategic priority to foster innovation and practical advancements in recycling within New Jersey, reflecting a theory of change that posits that targeted research and development will lead to improved recycling practices and outcomes for the state. The target beneficiaries for this grant program are New Jersey institutions of higher education. These institutions may implement projects in conjunction with, or by subcontracting or partnering with, other entities as permitted by law. The primary impact goal is to support the objectives of the REA through various projects. This includes enhancing the capabilities of the higher education sector to contribute to environmental sustainability, specifically in waste management and recycling. The program aims to leverage academic expertise to generate solutions that have tangible benefits for the state's recycling infrastructure and policies. The grant prioritizes projects in several key areas: recycling demonstration, research, or education, including professional training. This focus allows for a broad range of initiatives, from practical applications and pilot programs to in-depth academic studies and workforce development. The expected outcomes include the development of new or improved resources, tools, and methodologies that directly contribute to the objectives of the Recycling Enhancement Act. Measurable results could include, but are not limited to, new recycling technologies implemented, increased public or professional understanding of recycling best practices, and data-driven insights that inform future policy decisions. Approximately $1 million in grant funding has been allocated for this opportunity, with individual grant amounts ranging from $500,000 to $1 million. Awardees and grant amounts will be determined based on the strength of the proposal, adherence to selection criteria, and the availability of funds. The grant is designed to cover personnel costs (salaries/fringe benefits), other direct costs such as supplies, printing, mailings, mileage, and contractual services, as well as indirect costs. Indirect, fringe benefits, or administrative costs should be estimated using an approved negotiated cost agreement, or a rate of 10% of modified total direct costs if such an agreement is not available.
