Summary
This grant opportunity offers support for projects that promote inclusive and accessible sport and recreation activities within a specific region. It is open to established nonprofit organizations that focus on strengthening community involvement through athletic or physical activity-based initiatives. The funding is generally meant to assist with larger-scale improvements—such as enhancing facilities or purchasing shared-use equipment—and is not intended for personal items or individual needs.
Funding amounts may vary, but awards can reach up to $125,000 depending on the scope and type of project. Some applicants, like educational institutions, may be eligible for smaller amounts on a limited basis. The grant encourages programs that will serve a broad audience, especially efforts aimed at youth and community participation.
Applications are typically reviewed several times a year, with decision timelines that may take a few months. Funded projects are expected to be completed within a reasonable timeframe, and awards are provided through a structured financial support system. Priority may be given to initiatives that demonstrate local support, sustainability planning, or matching resources from other partners.
This opportunity is ideal for nonprofits with a track record of community service and a clear vision for enhancing public access to recreational opportunities. While the location focus is regional, the benefits are designed to reach a wide range of community members through improved infrastructure and increased access to sport programming. The grant reflects a broader interest in promoting health, inclusion, and community well-being through sport-based engagement.
