Main Street Community Foundation (MSCF) currently has two grant cycles open:

• Men & Boys' Fund
• Burlington Community Fund

MSCF is accepting applications for grants distributed from the Men & Boys’ Fund. Nonprofit organizations with programs serving men and boys in Bristol, Burlington, Plainville, Plymouth, Southington and Wolcott are encouraged to apply. The goal of the grantmaking program is to provide funds for programs that make it possible for men and boys to improve the quality of their lives, increase self-sufficiency and make a positive difference in their community.

MSCF is also accepting applications for grants awarded from the Burlington Community Fund. Proposals from nonprofit organizations serving Burlington residents will be considered for charitable projects in the areas of community outreach, arts and culture, youth programs, education, health, human services and the environment.

Full grant guidelines, eligibility criteria and links to the online application are available on MSCF’s website. Organizations interested in applying should contact Kate Kerchaert, Director of Grants and Programs, at 860.583.6363 before submitting a proposal. All proposals are due by 4 pm on September 11, 2020.
