BETTENDORF, IOWA (June 9, 2023) — The Quad Cities Community Foundation is now accepting applications for its 2023 Operations and Program Grant program. This year, the Community Foundation will award over $486,000 to non-profit organizations in the Quad Cities region.

Operations and Program Grants provide flexible and reliable funding for general operating support or program support for successful ongoing efforts. Non-profits can apply for up to $20,000, requested as a one- or two-year grant.

The deadline to apply for Operations and Program Grants is July 15. The application is available at qccommunityfoundation.org/operationsandprogramgrants.

The Community Foundation will hold an online information session for interested organizations on Tuesday, June 13, 12-1PM. While attendance is not required to apply, this will be a valuable opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the application process. A recording of the info session will be available on the Community Foundation’s website. Those interested in attending should e-mail grantmaking specialist Kaleigh Trammell at Kaleightrammell@QCCommunityFoundation.org.

Operations and Program Grants are made possible by donor-created Field of Interest Funds and the Quad Cities Community Impact Fund. Each year, Operations and Program grants support nonprofits working in six key fields of interest: Animals and the environment, arts and culture, community development, education, health, and youth development. To make the application process as accessible as possible, non-profits may submit a single application to be considered for multiple funds.
