About the Chapter Community Grants Program
The chapter community grants program is designed to invest in priority projects that further the March of Dimes mission, support national and state objectives, and further our strategic goal of reducing disparities in birth outcomes. Proposals will be accepted from organizations with the capacity, competence and experience to accomplish project goals and objectives through one of the following strategies:
Projects interventions may be provider and/or consumer focused. Interventions must be provided within the local chapter's specified geographic area.
In order to be eligible to receive a March of Dimes chapter grant, an organization must be an incorporated not-for-profit 501(c)(3) or for profit organization or government agency. The March of Dimes does not award grants to individuals.
See Community Grants under the "Mission Programs" tab for a listing of currently funded projects in our state.
The letter of intent stage for the January 2010-December 2010 grant period is now closed. Invites for full proposals have been sent to eligible applicants. The next grant application opportunity will begin in the spring/summer of 2010.
