Golden Heart Community Foundation (GHCF), an Affiliate of The Alaska Community Foundation (ACF), is pleased to announce its 2019 competitive grants cycle will be open from Saturday, August 31 to Tuesday, October 15. Grant awards are expected to range from $500-$2,500 and a total of $19,000 is available for grantmaking.
Applications will be accepted from qualified, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organizations (or equivalents, such as Tribal entities, schools, and faith-based organizations) that support charitable organizations and programs in the Fairbanks/North Pole area. Grants may support a broad range of community needs, including but not limited to health and wellness, education, the great outdoors, arts and culture, and community development.
