Verizon Foundation Offers Grants to New Jersey Nonprofit Organizations for Domestic Violence Prevention Programs
Deadline: September 2, 2011

The Verizon Foundation will award grants to New Jersey nonprofit organizations working on domestic violence prevention programs that are technology-based and located in underserved communities in the state.

The foundation will award program grants to nonprofits using technology to more effectively reach the communities they serve; to provide strategies for enhancing the safety of victims; and to offer job-related training for individuals participating in the programs.

To be eligible, a grant applicant must be a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization in New Jersey. Proposals should focus on underserved communities such as low-income, ethnic, minority, limited-English speaking, and disabled groups in rural, suburban, and inner-city regions.

A total of $200,000 in grant funds is available.

All grant applications must be submitted through the Verizon Foundation’s Web site using invitation code VZNJDV.

Complete program guidelines and the application form are available at the foundation Web site.
