Grant Application Workshop: If your organization or grant writer is new to Chinook Fund, we strongly recommend attending our Grant Application Workshop; we will give an introduction to Chinook Fund, our funding criteria, and an overview of our grant application process. This workshop will help you to determine if you are eligible to apply for a Chinook Fund grant and teach you some basics in writing a successful Chinook Fund application. Come prepared to share about the work your nonprofit or organization does and to participate in some hands-on training. Details: Chinook Fund Mission: Chinook Fund supports grassroots organizations working on issues of social and economic justice; by pooling our collective resources, we seed groups making a positive, systemic impact to improve the quality of life for all Coloradans. Grantmaking Information: We prioritize proposals with leadership and constituency from historically marginalized communities and work that engage in Community Organizing (visit our website to learn more). We look for work that is collaborative, risk taking, and strategic. We fund groups with budgets under $350,000, and look for organizations with diverse funding sources. We accept proposals from groups without 501c3 status as long as they have a fiscal sponsor or organizational bank account.
