Community Progress Fund

From Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation

The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation (ZSR) is committed to improving the quality of life for all North Carolinians. We do this primarily through grantmaking and capacity-building programs.

Type of Support

Overview

The Community Progress Fund provides an infusion of short-term funding for organizations to test ideas, expand promising efforts and achieve greater impact in their communities. Grants are meant to help groups build on existing momentum to move an issue, organization, idea or project forward. Through the process, ZSR wants to learn how applicants define “progress” and how short-term funding will help them make that progress. The criteria for this program are intentionally broad so that we can be responsive to organizations’ diverse needs.

Preference is given to:

Proposals from areas of the state that have relatively higher needs with fewer resources
Proposals that have the greatest potential to impact a community with the $20,000-$30,000 grant award(s)
Proposals that demonstrate strong potential for “progress” ZSR strongly encourages proposals from organizations that are led by and primarily serve people of color.
