Edwardsville Community Foundation Announces Grant Cycles for 2025

The Edwardsville Community Foundation's Relief Fund is accepting grant applications from nonprofits seeking to improve disaster and emergency preparedness. The deadline for applications is March 15, 2025. The ECF Relief Fund provides support for all members of the community affected by sudden and unexpected natural, manmade, and civil disasters and to meet the long-term needs of the community related to disaster and emergency preparedness. These grants are made possible by the hundreds of donors to the ECF Relief Fund.
 
Criteria for this round of funding from the ECF Relief Fund are the following: “ECF would like to hear from local nonprofit organizations that are putting a plan in place for how to best prepare for a future disaster or emergency. Or possibly the organization is preparing a response plan so their constituents will be better served when unexpected events occur,” Pamela Farrar, ECF executive director, said. “If you're thinking about how your organization could be better prepared, I encourage you to reach out with any questions and to complete our grant application by March 15, 2025.”
 
More information about this cycle of grants from the ECF Relief Fund, including criteria and grant application, is available here.
