--- ## Description The McClure Fund, administered by the Greater New Orleans Foundation, provides emergency capital grants to address urgent bricks-and-mortar needs—such as facility repairs, replacements, or additions—for United Way partner agencies operating within the Foundation’s thirteen-parish service area in Southeast Louisiana. The program targets capital needs that are too large for annual budgets but not extensive enough to require a full-scale capital campaign. Priority is given to requests that address crisis or emergency situations. --- ## Due Dates - Applications accepted on a rolling basis; there is no fixed deadline. - Organizations are notified of funding decisions within 60 days of submission. --- ## Funding Amount - Maximum grant amount is $15,000 per project. - Grants are typically awarded once per organization in a twelve-month period. - The fund does not usually cover 100% of a project's cost; applicants should expect to provide or seek additional funding. --- ## Eligibility - Applicants must be United Way partner agencies. - Projects must be located within the Greater New Orleans Foundation’s thirteen-parish service area: Assumption, Jefferson, Lafourche, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, Terrebonne, and Washington parishes. - Funding is intended for emergency capital projects (repairs, replacements, facility additions) rather than routine maintenance or minor expenses. --- ## Application Process - Applications must be submitted electronically via the Foundation’s [online portal](https://www.grantinterface.com/Home/Logon?urlkey=gnof). - Paper or email submissions are not accepted. - A [tutorial video](http://www.foundant.com/applicant-tutorial.php) is available to guide applicants through the online process. - Applicants are encouraged to review the tutorial before starting their application. - Notification of funding decisions is typically within 60 days of submission. --- ## Additional Information - The fund is designed to fill gaps between major capital campaigns and minor expenses covered by annual operating budgets. - Priority is given to projects that address emergencies or crises. - Repeat funding for the same organization is generally not available within a 12-month window. --- ## External Links - [McClure Fund Program Page](https://www.gnof.org/program/albert-n-and-hattie-m-mcclure/) - [Online Application Portal](https://www.grantinterface.com/Home/Logon?urlkey=gnof) - [Applicant Tutorial (Foundant)](http://www.foundant.com/applicant-tutorial.php) - [Greater New Orleans Foundation Home](https://www.gnof.org) --- ## Contact Information | Type | Details | |---------------------|-----------------------------------------| | Phone | 504-598-4663 | | Contact Page | [Contact the Foundation](https://www.gnof.org/contact-us/) | | Address | 919 St. Charles Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70130 |
