Special to Atmore News
The Advisory Committee of the Atmore Community Foundation announced the opening of its competitive grant cycle for local nonprofits that are addressing the needs of the Atmore community and striving to improve the quality of life of residents. The invitation to submit applications will be made available on December 1, 2021, and the deadline to apply is January 19, 2022.
The Atmore Community Foundation was founded in April 2017 as an affiliate of The Community Foundation of South Alabama. It serves as a vehicle to receive donations and bequests to benefit the local community. Through concerted grantmaking, the Atmore Community Foundation Fund was created to give the local leaders in Atmore an opportunity to make a difference in their hometown. With access to the Foundation’s financial and administrative services, these funds have the potential to make a long-lasting impact on the town’s local economy, health and wellbeing.
Nonprofits interested in applying for a grant can view the 2021 – 2022 Grant Guidelines and access the online grant application portal by visiting https://atmorecommunityfoundation.org. The deadline for application submission is January 19, 2022, at 5 p.m. CST.
