Grant Amounts and Duration

The Fresno Regional Foundation will be granting approximately $410,000 in its Human Service grant cycle. Of this amount, $300,000 has been earmarked specifically for Teen Pregnancy Prevention. For additional information, please see the TPP Addendum on page 15.

Generally, funding for Human Services will be awarded for a one-year period but may vary depending on how much time is necessary for grantees to meet the objectives described in their funding request.

In this Human Services Grant Cycle, FRF will invest in strengthening the organizations serving the Central Valley. Therefore, FRF will fund programs that focus on capacity-building strategies for Community Benefit Organizations (CBOs) in Fresno, Tulare, Madera, Merced, Kings and Mariposa counties. Fresno Regional Foundation will be granting approximately $110,000 specifically for Human Services.

Special Considerations

The Foundation will be granting approximately $300,000 in the area of Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP). (See TPP Addendum for details on page 15).

Due to donor-imposed restrictions, $30,000 of the $110,000 is earmarked for those organizations whose offices are located within the City of Fresno. The remaining $80,000 will fund organizations in all 6 counties.
