Grants for Nonprofits Working in Health, Hunger Relief, or Housing in California (USA)
GrantID: 74228
Grant Funding Amount Low: $30,000
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $60,000
Summary
This opportunity invites nonprofit organizations to apply for multi-year funding, with awards that can reach up to approximately $60,000 across two years. The grants are intended to support core human services in three broad areas: behavioral & physical health, food security, and shelter or safety programs. The intent is to strengthen organizations that are already well-established, fiscally sound, and delivering effective direct services to underserved populations.
The funding is unrestricted, allowing recipient organizations to allocate support toward overall operational costs or discrete programs aligned with one of the three focus areas. While a maximum total of $60,000 is possible, the review committee may choose to adjust award sizes based on need and funding availability.
Eligible applicants must be recognized 501(c)(3) charities—or operate through a compliant fiscal sponsor. Individuals are not eligible to apply. Organizations are limited to applying in just one of the thematic areas per cycle and can expect to participate in a mid-cycle evaluation during the first year and submit a final impact report near the end of the second year.
Support is aimed at increasing capacity and resilience in key sectors, with the typical funding duration running from the award in mid-year through two years’ time. Applications undergo a competitive review process involving staff and community volunteers, with decisions announced after a rigorous evaluation period.
In summary, this grant offers flexible, substantial financial resources to well-managed nonprofits working in health, hunger relief, or housing support—empowering them to scale their impact and address pressing community needs over a sustainable two-year horizon.
Eligible applicants in California with a demonstrated commitment to Quality of Life are encouraged to consider this funding opportunity. To identify additional grants aligned with your needs, visit The Grant Portal and utilize the Search Grant tool for tailored results.
