In addition to four regular grant cycles per year, Wiregrass Foundation also administers a Micro-Grant program for grant requests of $5,000 or less. Organizations located in Houston, Dale, Henry, and Geneva counties are eligible to submit a request for funding through this program.
Micro-Grants are intended to assist with fundraisers or single issue/single activity projects. No multi-year projects will be funded through this program, and organizations may not increase the $5000/year cap by joining with another agency to submit a cooperative proposal. Receipt of a Micro-Grant award will not preclude an organization from submitting a request under the regular grant program
These requests are reviewed/approved monthly by the Micro-Grant Program Committee. Organizations may apply more than once in a year but are limited to a maximum of $5,000 per year.
For purposes of this program, a “year” shall mean a calendar year, regardless of the recipient organization’s fiscal year.
