Summary
This grant is for nonprofit organizations or government entities serving women and children in Ohio. It is not available for individuals; applicants must be tax‑exempt 501(c)(3) public charities or government bodies.
The purpose of the grant is to support programs or projects that help improve the lives of underserved women and children. Typical areas of focus include strengthening economic stability and advancement (for example, job training, financial literacy, removing barriers to employment), mental and emotional health support (especially for those living at or below the poverty line), and neighborhood‑based programming (services in high‑risk areas, collaboratives with local partners).
The funding amount for each grant is up to $5,000. The grants are intended for specific projects rather than general capital campaigns or debt retirement. Applicants must show how their proposal addresses one or more of the focus areas and how it will directly impact women and children.
The grant opens annually (or semi‑annually) with a specific window for applications (for example, applications opening in August and due in October for an award early the next year). Recipients are required to submit a report at the end of the grant period, describing what was accomplished and how the funds were spent.
By design, this fund also aims to educate and involve women in philanthropy, growing a sustainable pool of support for these kinds of community programs. It values projects that reach underserved populations across all ages, abilities, cultures, and ethnicities.
Organizations and individuals based in Ohio who are engaged in Children & Childcare may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
