The Rhode Island Foundation has created a new funding category called “Responsive Grants”, designed to “address urgent community need, emerging opportunity, new ideas, and proven programs in the nonprofit space.”
Grants made through this program will start at $10,000, and the grant term will generally be one year. Organizations can apply any time, but are only eligible for one award per calendar year from this program.
Responsive Grants are designed to support organizations across the nonprofit sector – including those working in the arts, or to serve children & families, or to provide affordable housing, or to protect the environment. The program will also support organizations that are focused on other areas of need.
