    Overview

    The U.S. Bank Foundation's Community Possible Grant Program seeks to empower organizations working towards sustainable, impactful change within three primary areas: Work, Home, and Play. The program exclusively funds 501(c)(3) nonprofits, utilizing an electronic Letter of Interest for new or emerging organizations and an invitation-only application process for established partners. Its grant making focuses on addressing immediate needs as well as systemic economic and racial barriers, with a special consideration for environmental stewardship across all areas.

    1. Work: Supports workforce education and economic prosperity through funding for small business development training, job skills, career readiness programs, educational success pathways, and financial literacy for various demographics.

    2. Home: Aims at neighborhood stability and revitalization by financing projects related to safe and affordable housing, transitional living spaces, homeownership education, and green housing initiatives.

    3. Play: Encourages active and cultural engagement by investing in arts education, active play spaces for K-12 students, environmental stewardship, and programs that enhance community livability.

    The types of funding requests entertained include operating grants to support day-to-day nonprofit expenses, program or project grants for specific activities, and a limited number of capital grants for organizations with a strong alignment to the Community Possible focus areas and an established funding relationship with the foundation. Factors such as innovation, positive community engagement, demonstrated outcomes, service delivery to low-income and minority groups, organizational diversity, and financial health are considered in the grant-making process.
