Description
The Grand Traverse Families in Action for Youth Endowment is administered by the Grand Traverse Regional Community Foundation through its Fall Grants youth program. It supports organizations’ programs and projects that help young people in the Traverse City area avoid substance abuse and violence. These two prevention priorities are the central focus of the endowment’s funding.
The endowment connects a local focus on youth with the Foundation’s broader grantmaking work. Support is available for both programs and projects addressing its purpose. The Foundation also uses final reports from grant partners to understand outcomes and share successes with supporters, community partners, and the general public.
