Harper College Community Impact Fund Grant application deadline extended

Over the past three years, Harper College’s Community Impact Fund Grant Program has awarded $190,000 to 16 nonprofit organizations whose missions support the advancement of equity, diversity and economic mobility for underserved and marginalized communities in the college’s district.

Previously funded projects are having a long-term impact on community members’ lives, with projects and services that include providing transitional housing for single mothers and children leaving domestic violence situations and offering comprehensive care management to older and disabled adults.

To continue the grant program’s mission of supporting equity, diversity and economic mobility programs in Harper’s district, the Harper College Educational Foundation is accepting applications for a fourth round of funding via the Community Impact Fund Grant Program (formerly called the Community Innovation Fund Grant Program). Award funding will range from $5,000 to $25,000.

The deadline for online applications has been extended to May 16. Awards will be announced in June.
