Special Grant Opportunities

Targeted Funds, Initiatives, and Affiliates

In addition to our Community Grants program, the Community Foundation has funds available through initiatives as well as a variety of endowed funds that support targeted fields of interest.

Targeted Grant Opportunities


These funding opportunities are from permanently endowed funds that support targeted fields of interest above and beyond our general grantmaking. Click on an endowed fund for more information.

Initiatives


These initiatives are efforts where the Community Foundation is addressing a specific need in our community.  Some initiatives have grantmaking programs with specific guidelines and deadlines. Click on the initiative for more information or view all of our initiatives here.

Affiliates


Affiliates operate within the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan and focus on strengthening specific geographic areas within the region. Each affiliate works to grow local charitable resources and invest them in programs and organizations that improve quality of life in their communities.
