National Alliance for Grieving Children Announces Capacity-Building Grants Program

The National Alliance for Grieving Children promotes awareness of the needs of children and teens grieving a death and provides education and resources for anyone who wants to support them.

NAGC, in association with the New York Life Foundation, will award twenty one-time grants of $10,000 to childhood bereavement organizations that have identified a need and seek funding to help them operate more effectively by addressing their organizational strengths and weaknesses and proposing goals that are achievable in a twelve-month period with the funds allocated.

Proposals should fit one of five major categories: — planning activities, staff/board development, strategic relationships/collaboration, internal operations, and technology improvements (i.e., improving IT capacity through upgrades to hardware and software, networking, website updates, and staff training). Projects should have an impact on the organization itself as opposed to its clients.

To be eligible, organizations must be considered tax exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

See the NAGC website for complete program guidelines and application instructions.

DEADLINE: JULY 11, 2016
