Our Funding Areas
Through collaboration with community stakeholders, Pontiac’s neighborhoods will flourish as vibrant, welcoming spaces where all residents feel connected, safe, and empowered to achieve economic stability. By fostering a resilient community, we ensure that opportunity and prosperity are within reach for everyone.
Our Process
The Pontiac Funders Collaborative awards grants to foster vibrant neighborhoods and enhance economic stability for youth and families. Most grants are issued by invitation, starting with the submission of a concept paper. These papers undergo a thorough review and scoring process by the Funder Advisory Committee, Community Advisory Committee and City-County Advisory Committee, followed by a final internal evaluation.
