American Legion Child Welfare Foundation Offers Support for Programs to Help Children
Deadline: July 15, 2012

The American Legion Child Welfare Foundation seeks to provide other nonprofit organizations with the means to educate the public about the special needs of children across the United States.

To help advance its mission, the foundation annually provides funding to nonprofit organizations that contribute to the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual welfare of children through the dissemination of knowledge about new and innovative organizations and/or programs designed to benefit youth; and/or contribute to the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual welfare of children through the dissemination of knowledge already possessed by well-established organizations, to the end that such information can be used more adequately by society.

Applications are invited from nonprofit tax-exempt organizations for programs that have the potential to help American children in a large geographic area (more than one state). Grants may not be used for the normal day-to-day operating expenses of the grantee or for special operating expenses connected with the grant.

Applications will be accepted beginning May 1, 2012. Visit the foundation Web site for complete program guidelines, information on previous grant awards, and the application form.
