The Washington State Department of Commerce is offering the 2025-27 Youth Recreational Facilities (YRF) grant program. This program aims to award state grants to Tribes and nonprofit youth-oriented organizations to cover eligible capital costs for acquiring, constructing, or rehabilitating projects that provide recreational opportunities for K-12 youth. The core mission of this grant program is to enhance youth well-being and development by improving access to quality recreational facilities. The target beneficiaries of this program are K-12 youth, with an emphasis on projects that serve their recreational needs. The impact goals are to support the creation or improvement of nonresidential youth recreational facilities and ensure these facilities also offer programmatic social and/or educational services on-site. This approach ensures a holistic development environment for young people. The program prioritizes projects that involve the construction, renovation, or acquisition and major renovation of nonresidential youth recreational facilities. Additionally, the acquisition of bare land must be accompanied by the construction or renovation of a usable facility. Key focuses for applicants include demonstrating a dedication to youth-related activities, agreeing to LEED certification processes or exemptions, and committing to state prevailing wages. Expected outcomes include an increase in the number of high-quality recreational facilities available to youth across Washington State.

The **Mardag Foundation** is now accepting applications for its **2024 Grant Program**, supporting organizations that promote equity, strengthen communities, and improve quality of life for Minnesotans. Rooted in collaboration and racial equity, the foundation’s approach emphasizes community-informed work that empowers marginalized populations and fosters lasting, inclusive change. Grant funding is available to organizations serving residents in **Greater Minnesota** and the **East Metro counties of Dakota, Ramsey, and Washington**. The foundation’s giving focuses on three primary areas. The first is **improving the lives of low-income children, youth, and families** who face barriers to opportunity. Priority is given to organizations serving marginalized communities—especially Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC)—and addressing intersections of education, mental health, basic needs, employment pathways, healthcare access, and housing stability. Projects that eliminate inequities and expand equitable opportunities for youth and families are especially encouraged to apply. The second focus area supports **older adults who face isolation, financial hardship, or barriers to full participation in community life**. Funding will prioritize organizations serving low-income older Minnesotans, particularly those who are also members of marginalized groups such as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ individuals, or people with disabilities. Grants may support efforts to meet basic needs, improve caregiving quality, promote mental health, reduce isolation, and enable aging in place through stable and safe housing. The foundation also welcomes programs fostering **intergenerational connections**, which enrich both older adults and younger participants through shared experiences. The third priority is **strengthening community vitality through arts and culture**. The Mardag Foundation believes that the arts play a vital role in honoring diverse cultures and fostering shared understanding. Funding will support arts and culture organizations that elevate underrepresented voices and amplify the creative contributions of BIPOC, low-income, disabled, and LGBTQIA+ communities. Through these efforts, the foundation aims to build stronger, more connected, and culturally vibrant communities across Minnesota. The foundation offers two types of grants: **General Operating Support** and **Capital Project grants**. General operating grants provide flexible funding to nonprofits that serve at least 50% of their beneficiaries in the East Metro or Greater Minnesota. Capital grants support facility improvements or equipment purchases for projects based in these same regions, typically distributed over multiple years. Eligible applicants include **501(c)(3) nonprofits, educational institutions, government agencies, and religious organizations**. Preference is given to entities whose work is led or informed by the people most affected by the issues they address. The Mardag Foundation does not fund organizations using fiscal sponsors, those exclusively serving Minneapolis or the West Metro, scholarships, sectarian programs, or large-scale capital campaigns for private schools or universities. By focusing its support on community-led efforts that address inequality and strengthen social infrastructure, the foundation continues its mission of advancing opportunity, dignity, and well-being for all Minnesotans—especially those facing the greatest barriers to success.

This strategic approach underscores a theory of change that values authentic youth engagement as a catalyst for effective and impactful program development.

The Town of Avon's Support for Community Events Grant Program aims to provide financial aid to local non-profit organizations that sponsor community events. The core purpose is to support local festivals, special events, or community programs designed to offer recreational and cultural opportunities for residents, while also generally promoting the Town of Avon. This aligns with a mission to enrich the quality of life for residents and enhance the town's attractiveness as a place to live and visit. The program seeks to foster community engagement and celebrate the town's heritage through these events. The target beneficiaries are local non-profit organizations that host community events within the Town of Avon, ultimately benefiting the residents who participate in these recreational and cultural activities. The impact goals include promoting the attractiveness of the town, celebrating its heritage, increasing recreational opportunities, and enriching the overall quality of life for its residents. The program focuses on supporting events that contribute to these broader community benefits rather than an applicant's regular operational costs. Priorities for funding include events that specifically highlight the town's appeal as a destination, celebrate its history and its people, expand recreational options, and improve the general well-being of the community. Special consideration is given to grant requests that fund items or services crucial for public health, safety, and welfare during events, such as emergency medical services, refuse collection, portable restrooms, lighting, security, and transportation. This demonstrates a focus on practical support that ensures the success and safety of community gatherings. Expected outcomes include a more vibrant community life through diverse cultural and recreational events, increased town visibility and appeal, and stronger community bonds. The measurable results, though not explicitly detailed as quantitative metrics in the provided text, would likely be assessed through the number and variety of events supported, the reach of those events within the community, and the extent to which they fulfill the stated goals of promoting the town and enriching resident experiences. The program operates under a theory of change where financial support for well-organized, community-focused events directly leads to a more engaged populace and a more desirable town environment. Eligibility criteria further define the program's strategic priorities. Applicants must be IRS tax-exempt under a 501c category, and grants will not be awarded to organizations with a primary political or religious purpose, ensuring a secular and broadly beneficial focus. The event itself must align with the program's goals, not be financially dependent on the grant, and must occur within Avon's limits. Additionally, recipients are required to provide recognition to the Town of Avon as a sponsor, demonstrating a reciprocal relationship and promoting the town's involvement in community enrichment. This strategic framework ensures that funding is directed towards initiatives that genuinely serve the public interest and align with the town's vision for community development.
