OUR GRANTS
We offer two different grant funds. Our K-12 Changemakers grant is designed for students and educators in our elementary, middle and high schools. Our Intergenerational Changemakers grant is designed for community members partnering with youth or positively affecting youth in our community.
We also offer a program for high school students and local nonprofits known as the Youth Philanthropy Initiative, a.k.a. YPI. This takes place once a year within the local high schools in the Wood River Valley.
Learn more about each one below and how you can get involved!
