FC Cincinnati Foundation is proud to support the West End with our Grants Program which supports community-building initiatives within the West End neighborhood. A minimum of $100,000 in grants will be invested in the West End on an annual basis through this grants program.
To qualify for a grant, the applicant’s initiative must support community-building initiatives within the West End neighborhood. Applicants should also be a 501(c)3 organization in good standing. A map showcasing the boundaries of the West End is referenced here.
Grant applications are reviewed bi-annually in May and November of each calendar year, with grants awarded in June and December, respectively. To ensure we can support numerous organizations, a maximum of $10,000 in grant funding will be awarded to an organization in one calendar year.
Organizations are encouraged to seek endorsement for their application from the West End Community Council. While this is not required, it is helpful for us to understand the priorities of neighborhood leadership as we make grant determinations.
We encourage applicants that meet the above requirement to apply here.
