The Helen Kimberly Jones Charitable Trust offers grants to organizations dedicated to preventing cruelty to animals, primarily within Buncombe County, North Carolina. This grant program is directly aligned with the foundation's core mission to promote the charitable purpose of animal welfare. The grants, ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 with an average size of $5,000, are specifically designed to support initiatives that address animal cruelty, reflecting the Trust's focused approach to philanthropy. The average total giving per year is $40,000, indicating a consistent commitment to this cause. The target beneficiaries of these grants are organizations that qualify as exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are actively involved in programs or services devoted to the prevention of cruelty to animals. The primary impact goal is to reduce and prevent animal cruelty within Buncombe County, North Carolina. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed beyond the program area, the focus on "prevention of cruelty to animals" implies a desire for outcomes such as increased animal safety, reduced instances of abuse, and improved welfare for animals in the region. The Trust's priorities and focuses are clearly centered on animal welfare, with a specific geographic emphasis on Buncombe County. While the program areas also mention "Environment," the overarching requirement for funds to be used for preventing cruelty to animals solidifies this as the primary focus. The eligibility criteria further underscore this commitment, ensuring that only organizations directly contributing to this cause receive funding. The foundation's strategic priorities are to channel resources to local, impactful programs that align with its mission. The theory of change appears to be that by funding qualified non-profit organizations working on the ground, the Trust can effectively contribute to the prevention of animal cruelty. This approach aims to achieve measurable improvements in animal welfare and safety within the designated community through targeted financial support and a clear focus on actionable prevention efforts.

The New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC) is offering $325 million in grants for clean and drinking water projects. These grants are specifically for selected municipalities with infrastructure projects aimed at protecting public health and/or water quality. The EFC's mission aligns with the critical need to safeguard the state's water resources and ensure the well-being of its residents, directly supporting environmental protection and public health initiatives through strategic infrastructure development. The target beneficiaries of this grant program are municipalities across all counties in New York State. The program prioritizes projects that protect public health and water quality, with additional considerations for median household income, population served, governmental and community support, environmental justice, and project readiness. A key focus is on small, rural, and disadvantaged communities with populations of 3,500 or less, as these areas may qualify for enhanced awards, demonstrating an equitable approach to grant distribution. The program has clear priorities and focuses, specifically addressing clean water projects, drinking water projects, and intermunicipal (IMG) clean and drinking water projects. For clean water projects, awards can be up to $25 million or 25% of net eligible costs, with an enhanced 50% funding for small, rural, and disadvantaged communities. Drinking water projects tackling emerging contaminants (EC) above the State's Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) can receive 70% of net eligible costs with no cap, while other drinking water projects are capped at $5 million or 60% of net eligible costs. IMG projects for cooperating municipalities can receive up to $30 million or 40% of net eligible costs. These differentiated funding structures reflect a strategic prioritization of the most pressing water quality challenges. Expected outcomes include the construction, replacement, or repair of water infrastructure, upgrades to comply with environmental and public health laws, system upgrades to combat emerging contaminants like PFOA, PFOS, and 1,4 dioxane, and improvements to address combined and/or sanitary sewer overflow impacts. Measurable results will be seen in the successful completion of these construction-focused projects, improved water quality, enhanced public health protection, and increased compliance with environmental regulations. The EFC's strategic priority is to invest in tangible infrastructure improvements that yield long-term benefits for New York's communities and environment, operating under the theory of change that targeted financial support for critical water infrastructure will directly lead to a healthier and more sustainable future for the state.
