Description
The Herkimer County Grant Round, offered by the Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties, supports local nonprofit partners and organizations with outcome-driven programs and projects. It prioritizes work that addresses an organization’s greatest needs, creates opportunities to better serve constituents, or delivers meaningful community impact.
Eligible work includes programs and projects, new construction, equipment purchases, and repairs to existing buildings or equipment. Projects must have identifiable, measurable outcomes and a definitive timeline for completing the work or achieving those outcomes. The foundation also shares requests with its fundholders to optimize potential support for nonprofit partners, connecting organizational needs with additional opportunities for support.
