The Retirement Research Foundation aims to improve the quality of life for the nation's older adults. As one of the first private foundations focused solely on aging and retirement issues, RRF is dedicated to supporting innovative solutions that address the increasing urgency of challenges faced by aging populations.
The Organizational Capacity Building (OCB) grant award program aims to support Illinois-based nonprofit organizations in enhancing their operational capabilities and overall infrastructure, with a particular focus on serving older populations more efficiently. The grants cover a broad spectrum of operational areas including Board Development, Communications and Marketing, Evaluation, Fundraising, Human Resources, Information Technology Improvements, Internal Operations/Financial Management, Organizational Strategy Planning, and Strategic Program Planning.
Additionally, the OCB Flexible Fund Grants, provided by the Retirement Research Foundation, offer financial assistance for nonprofit organizations to address immediate capacity building needs. This includes readiness assessments to identify capacity building opportunities and targeted consultations for short-term assistance on emerging issues. These grants cater to fast-tracked applications, with funding requests capped at $5,000 and decisions made within four to six weeks, accommodating the dynamic needs of organizations serving the older demographic in Illinois.
