Can my organization apply for a grant this grant cycle?

Organizations may apply to any Community Fund cycle, given they meet the following criteria:

• The organization has not applied to the Community Fund in the same fiscal year. The Cambridge Community Foundation’s fiscal year is July 1 – June 30.
  Ex. An organization that applied for a grant in the fall cycle may not apply again in the following spring cycle, as these occur in the same fiscal year.
  

• The organization does not have an active grant from the Community Fund. Community Fund grants are considered active until 1 year from the application deadline.
  Ex. An organization awarded a grant in the spring cycle may not apply again in the following fall cycle, because the spring grant is still active.
  

• The organization has designation as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity or is fiscally sponsored by an entity with such a status.

• The organization will request funding for activities that impact people who live in or rely on Cambridge.
