The Eide Bailly’s Resourcefullness Award is designed to bolster the financial health of the nonprofit sector and celebrate organizations across the U.S. for their innovative and sustainable revenue-generating initiatives. This award aligns with a broader mission to strengthen the nonprofit landscape by promoting financial resilience and showcasing successful strategies. The program seeks to support the sector's ability to maintain operations and achieve its goals through robust and creative funding methods. The primary beneficiaries of this award are 501(c)(3) organizations across all states and counties within the U.S. The impact goal is to recognize and reward nonprofits that demonstrate exceptional creativity and sustainability in their revenue generation efforts. By highlighting these successful models, Eide Bailly aims to inspire and educate other organizations about effective fundraising trends, ideas, and campaign strategies, ultimately fostering a more financially secure and innovative nonprofit community.

The foundation's strategic priority, as implied by this award, is to contribute to the long-term viability and effectiveness of nonprofits by promoting innovative and sustainable financial practices, thereby fostering a stronger, more resilient sector. The theory of change suggests that by identifying and celebrating successful revenue generation, Eide Bailly can elevate these models, encourage their adoption, and ultimately improve the financial health and impact of nonprofits nationwide.

General Program Support (GPS) funding, provided by the Florida Department of State, aims to support Florida's arts and cultural organizations, both public and private, by funding their general program activities rather than specific projects. This aligns with the state's cultural objectives to promote, create, and present cultural exhibits, performances, educational programs, and events, or to provide professional services as a State Service Organization or Local Arts Agency. The program's mission is to further the state's cultural landscape and ensure access to arts and culture across Florida. The target beneficiaries of the GPS funding include a wide range of arts and cultural organizations. This encompasses organizations promoting excellence in arts education, those focusing on specific disciplines like dance, literature, media arts, museum, music, presenter, theatre, traditional arts, and visual arts, as well as designated Local Arts Agencies (LAAs) and State Service Organizations (SSOs). LAAs are public entities supporting arts and culture through advocacy and information dissemination, while SSOs are non-profit organizations providing services in at least 40 Florida counties. The impact goals are to enhance cultural programming, foster arts education, support local and statewide arts infrastructure, and ensure a vibrant arts and cultural sector throughout Florida. The program prioritizes various types of support, offering four main categories: Arts in Education program support, Discipline-based program support, Local Arts Agency program support, and State Service Organization program support. Specific eligibility criteria are in place, with higher funding requests ($25,000+ and $50,000+) requiring a history of completed grants with the Division of Arts and Culture, and for requests over $50,000, at least three years of completed programming and one paid, full-time staff member in a management position. Additional specific requirements exist for Arts in Education organizations (arts education mission), Museum disciplines (open 180 days/year, own/utilize objects, exhibit regularly), Professional Theatre (compensate artistic staff/actors), Local Arts Agencies (official designation in one or more counties), and State Service Organizations (reach at least 40 counties). The expected outcomes of the GPS funding include a stronger, more active arts and cultural community across Florida, increased access to diverse cultural experiences for residents and visitors, and sustained support for organizations vital to the state's cultural identity. Measurable results would include the number of cultural exhibits, performances, educational programs, or events conducted, the reach and impact of State Service Organizations and Local Arts Agencies, and the overall health and stability of funded arts and cultural organizations as evidenced by their programming and operational capacity. The grant period is July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, with grant sizes ranging from $1,000 to $150,000 based on proposal type and funding level. The Florida Department of State's strategic priority is to advance the cultural objectives of the state. The theory of change behind GPS funding posits that by providing general program support to qualified arts and cultural organizations, these organizations will be better equipped to conduct, create, produce, present, and sponsor cultural activities and educational programs. This, in turn, will lead to a more culturally enriched populace and stronger local and statewide arts ecosystems. The emphasis on general program support over specific projects reflects a belief that empowering organizations to pursue their core missions will yield more sustainable and far-reaching cultural benefits for Florida.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit applications for Senator Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Specialized Research Centers (MDSRCs). These Centers promote collaborative basic, translational, and clinical research and provide important resources that can be used by the national muscular dystrophy research community. A goal of this Centers program is to support important and innovative research in the muscular dystrophies that is best pursued through an interdisciplinary and collaborative center environment and projects that may not be as effective if supported by "stand-alone" research project grants. The Centers also provide outstanding environments for the training of new scientists electing to pursue careers conducting research in high priority areas of muscular dystrophy. Finally, Center investigators are expected to engage the patient and advocacy communities in conversations to increase awareness of research, encourage patient participation in research, and incorporate the perspectives of these communities in the conduct of patient-centered research.

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will support extramural research to investigate and mitigate challenges facing clinical assay development and subsequent analytical validation due to preanalytical variability in tumor tissue biopsies, blood biospecimens utilized as liquid biopsies", or other biospecimens as described in this FOA. Extramural research funded under this FOA may include investigations of preanalytical variability associated with the procurement and study of small biopsies (core biopsies, small excision samples), blood utilized for "liquid biopsies", tissue swabs, tissue secretions, pleural and esophageal aspirates, feces, or bodily fluids like sweat, urine, CSF, breast milk and saliva. Investigator-designed experiments will explore how different biospecimen preanalytical conditions affect emerging and clinically relevant biomarkers quantified by a variety of testing platforms. The results from this research program will improve the understanding of how analytical quantification of clinically relevant biomarkers is affected by variation in biospecimen collection, processing, and storage procedures. The overall goal is to expedite biomarker clinical assay development through evidence-based standardization of biopsy handling practices.

The Advocates for Springfield Fund, established in partnership with the Community Foundation of Otsego County, is dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of the Springfield community in New York. This fund emerged from a local grassroots group, also called Advocates for Springfield, which initially focused on promoting good land uses within the town. Having successfully influenced the adoption of a comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance, and other land use laws since its inception in the early 2000s, the group sought to repurpose its remaining financial resources for broader community benefit. The Community Foundation's mission to support local communities aligns directly with this initiative, ensuring the longevity and effective deployment of these funds for the residents of Springfield. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are local nonprofit organizations that enhance the community's fabric, such as volunteer fire departments and libraries. Additionally, the fund supports initiatives that supplement summer jobs benefiting the community, with a particular focus on childhood education. Groups fiscally sponsored by a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization are also eligible, provided they submit evidence of sponsorship. The program explicitly excludes direct grants to individuals or businesses, focusing instead on organizational support that fosters collective well-being and community development. The grant program prioritizes funding for projects that demonstrably contribute to the health and well-being of Springfield residents. This includes supporting essential community services provided by local nonprofits and investing in programs that offer educational and developmental opportunities for children through summer jobs. The focus on childhood education reflects a strategic priority to cultivate a strong future for the community by nurturing its youngest members. The overarching goal is to strengthen the community infrastructure and improve the quality of life for its residents through targeted, community-centric investments. Expected outcomes of this grant program include enhanced support for vital community services, increased opportunities for youth development and education, and a stronger, more resilient Springfield community. Measurable results will be tied to the impact of the funded projects, such as the number of individuals served by supported nonprofits, the number of summer jobs created or supplemented, and the educational outcomes for participating children. The Community Foundation’s strategic priority, as evidenced by allocating up to $1,500 for awards in 2024 with individual awards up to $500, is to distribute resources efficiently to generate meaningful, localized impact. This approach reflects a theory of change where targeted financial support for community-based initiatives leads to tangible improvements in the overall health and well-being of the community.
