Foundation launches unique program for 2010

Recognizing that nonprofits sometimes need more than just technical assistance and resources to tell their stories, we are pleased to announce a special Make it Stick! Request for Proposals (RFP) where nonprofits can apply to the Saint Luke’s Foundation for financial support of communications programs, projects and materials.

 

This unique funding program will occur in the second quarter of 2010 in place of the Foundation’s regular second quarter community grant application process.

 

The Make it Stick! RFP will prioritize organizations providing basic needs (food, clothing, shelter, healthcare) across vulnerable populations. As with all other Saint Luke’s Foundation grant requests, applicants must also meet at least one of the Foundation’s focus areas of health and healthcare, human services and neighborhood empowerment.

 

Organizations whose work aligns with the Foundation’s priorities and areas of focus may apply for support of unique approaches to new or existing communications programs, activities or materials.

 

Projects funded under the Make it Stick! RFP will be highlighted at the Foundation’s 2011 biennial meeting. For more on the Make it Stick! RFP, click here.
