Are you looking to apply for grants from Montgomery County nonprofit organizations? The Montgomery County Community Foundation offers competitive grants each year through a four-stage process. To be eligible, potential beneficiaries must submit applications in the form approved by the Foundation and within the designated time period for the grantmaking cycle. The funds are provided at the end of the year for use in the following year and cannot be used to pay for expenses incurred before the funds are received in December.The grant applications are reviewed by an independent committee organized by the County Office of Grant Management. This committee includes neutral and qualified individuals from Montgomery County Government, who are selected based on their experiences in the subject area of the grant program, grant administration, or project management.
Panel members will review and score applicants' proposals on a 100-point scale according to the criteria and priorities established in the grant program. The cumulative ranking will serve as the basis for determining final awards.The Montgomery County Community Foundation Board reviews and approves grant applications with recommendations from staff and a team of community volunteers. It is the applicant's responsibility to inform the Montgomery County Community Foundation if any circumstances arise that could change or affect any aspect of the grant application. Nonprofit organizations that receive grants must submit a final report before being considered for a grant in any subsequent year.For more information about applying for grants from Montgomery County nonprofit organizations, visit the Montgomery County Office of Grant Management: Grant Application Platform.
