Description
The Geographic Enrichment Grant Cycle is administered by the Charlevoix County Community Foundation (C3F) to support community needs on Beaver Island and in Boyne City, Charlevoix, and East Jordan. Dedicated enrichment funds focus on the people and places of these individual communities, supporting projects and programs that strengthen organizations and the communities they serve.
The cycle favors collaboration, responses to new needs, new approaches to existing needs, efforts that help people help themselves, prevention, and avoidance of duplicated services. Each community has an advisory committee that reviews applications and recommends funding to C3F’s Board of Trustees. Donor advisors may also choose to support applications through their funds.
