Grant Information

VOLUNTEER FLORIDA'S MISSION is to strengthen communities in Florida through volunteerism and service. We know, however, that without funding, our mission will never succeed. That's why one of our primary goals is to offer funding opportunities to assist communities in Florida. Annually in the fall we announce our largest funding opportunity, federal AmeriCorps programs, but throughout the year we have multiple opportunities to provide funding for community programs. This page provides you with the latest information in available grants, along with information to assist you in applying.

CIVIC REFLECTION GRANTS

A Series of Community Conversations:
A special initiative of the Florida Humanities Council that requires only a letter of intent from a qualified nonprofit organization.

The Florida Humanities Council seeks to partner with community organizations interested in convening meaningful conversations among citizens about the challenges we face in trying to improve our public life through community service. We seek to engage the many citizens who are working to improve some aspect of our public life through joining associations, serving on boards, giving and raising money, participating in projects, and staffing and leading non-profit organizations.  More information:  http://www.flahum.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/Grants.Appl_Civic
