Summary
July 10 is the deadline for nonprofits to apply to three Community Foundation for the Land of Lincoln grant programs supporting community needs, accessible recreation and Springfield historic preservation.
The largest pool is the Community Grants Program, which will award multiple grants of up to $10,000 for charitable purposes across eight central Illinois counties, with decisions due in September.
The Access to Recreation Fund offers up to $6,000 total — capped at $3,000 per request — for Sangamon County projects expanding recreation for people with disabilities, while the Historic Preservation Fund provides grants up to $6,000.
The foundation is also hiring a full-time Grants and Scholarships Manager to support grantmaking, scholarships and community impact programs; applications are rolling until the position is filled.
