Eligibility

 

General Eligibility Requirements

To determine if your organization is eligible for SJF grants, please review the following questions:

1. Does your organization have a 501(c)3 or 501(c)4 status as determined by the IRS? Is your organization a federally recognized American Indian tribal government or agency? Groups sponsored by 501(c)3 or 501(c)4 organizations or by federally recognized tribal governments can also apply.
2. Does your organization carry out most of its work in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and/or Wyoming?
3. Is your organization led by people who are the most directly affected by the problems that the organization or project is addressing? Please review our definition of Community Organizing.

If you answered "NO" to one of those questions, you should explore other funding options. If you have any questions about the questions, please contact us using our Grants Staff Contact Form.
