Big news for the organizations keeping our community fed and sheltered: Sacramento County and the Sacramento Region Community Foundation have teamed up to launch a major “capacity-building” initiative.
The goal? To move beyond just “keeping the lights on” and help local nonprofits build a rock-solid foundation for the future. They aren’t just looking for groups that do good work—they’re looking for ten mid-sized organizations ready to level up their leadership, fundraising, and operations.
The Breakdown: What Selected Nonprofits Get
This isn’t just a check in the mail; it’s a 20-month partnership. The ten organizations chosen for the program will receive:
- $80,000 in Grant Funding: Direct financial support to help stabilize and grow.
- Expert Mentorship: Access to nonprofit pros to help with “under the hood” stuff like financial management and communications.
- A “Cohort” Experience: The chance to work alongside and learn from other local leaders facing the same challenges.
- Tailored Assessments: A deep dive into the organization’s current systems to find exactly where they can improve.
Is Your Organization Eligible?
The initiative is specifically targeting established, mid-sized nonprofits that focus on:
- Homelessness Services
- Food Security
They are looking for groups that are already active in Sacramento County with experienced staff and a desire to make their internal systems as strong as their community impact.
How to Apply
If your nonprofit is ready to grow, don’t wait. The deadline is fast approaching:
