Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund - Large Grants Program

    From New Hampshire Charitable Foundation

    The mission of the funder, while not explicitly detailed, centers around the restoration, protection, and enhancement of the Connecticut River watershed upstream of the confluence of the White River and Connecticut River. This involves caring for the river, wetlands, and shore lands within this specified area, which is influenced by the broader goal of environmental preservation and restoration, particularly in relation to the impacts of hydroelectric dams.

    Overview

    The grant program by the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund aims to support projects in Coös County, NH, and bordering communities in the U.S. and Canada, focusing on community revitalization. It seeks to fund efforts that:

    • Revitalize population hubs and community gathering places.
    • Enhance regional cultural and social assets.
    • Promote sustainable use of natural resources like forests, farms, and waterways.
    • Support economic development, especially in industries like energy efficiency and non-motorized outdoor recreation, deemed to have growth potential.
    • Improve community resiliency through regional planning, capital improvements, healthy rural landscapes, youth development, leadership programs, and basic needs fulfillment such as healthcare, housing, and legal services.
    • Support educational initiatives from early childhood through adulthood.

    Grants range from $20,001 to $300,000, with multiyear projects eligible for up to $100,000 per year for three years. Applicants must initially submit a concept paper and, if selected, are invited to present a full proposal.
