Women’s Giving Circle now accepting grant applications

The Fulton County Community Foundation is now accepting Women’s Giving Circle video grant applications from charitable organizations serving Fulton County.

Applications are due by September 8, and can be submitted online at www.nicf.org/fulton-county/womens-giving-circle. 

Video applications provide organizations with the opportunity to share their story in a personal, creative way—highlighting their passion, their people, and the impact of their projects. Videos can be recorded on any device and do not require professional editing. Budget forms must also be submitted through a grant portal. 

Grants typically range from $1,000 to $3,000.

“Women’s Giving Circle grants have often been the extra boost community projects need to be successful,” said Brian Johnson, Fulton County Community Foundation Director of Development. “Not only do the grants provide financial support to the applicants, but they also allow the organization educate the community on the amazing work they are doing!”

Grant recipients will be selected by Women’s Giving Circle members during the group’s Annual Gathering on Tuesday, September 30. Membership in the Women’s Giving Circle is open to women of all ages and members who pay their annual dues by the gathering date are eligible to vote on grant recipients. 

Since 2011, the Women’s Giving Circle has awarded nearly $100,000 to local charitable organizations through a combination of membership contributions and an endowed fund that will support Fulton County forever.
