Description
The Campbell Foundation’s Unsolicited Grant Requests Program provides support to nonprofit organizations that demonstrate creative and inspiring approaches to community work, with a particular emphasis on advancing racial equity. The program welcomes proposals across a broad range of subject areas but gives priority to organizations serving diverse populations and working to dismantle barriers to opportunity. Focus areas include agriculture, clean and safe drinking water, community engagement, water management, and watershed advocacy. Organizations must operate in specific counties within California, Maryland, or Pennsylvania and show a strong track record, stable funding, and leadership that reflects their communities.
