Sharing Prince George’s - LOI
summer 2025
The Sharing Prince George’s Fund of the Greater Washington Community Foundation supports high-impact nonprofits serving Prince George’s County’s low-income residents. Sharing grants have helped nonprofit partners respond to the community’s needs and work in partnership toward our shared vision of a more equitable, just, and thriving Prince George’s County.
As part of The Community Foundation’s 10-year strategic plan, the Sharing Prince George’s Fund aims to address urgent community needs, advance economic justice, and, ultimately, close the wealth gap, which undermines the health and stability of our entire community. Therefore, Sharing Prince George’s grantmaking priorities for this cycle include:
• Basic needs such as access to resources for health and mental health, food security, affordable housing, childcare and education, and interventions that help families transition from crisis to recovery.
• Economic mobility programs that enable people to chart a pathway out of poverty through access to higher education, training, entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and more.
• Individual and Community Wealth Building opportunities which empower people with the financial and social capital needed to build wealth so they can weather crises and pursue their dreams.
Award
For the FY26 cycle, Sharing Prince George’s will award up to 10 one-time grants ranging from $5,000 - $25,000.
With facilitation by Community Foundation staff, the Sharing Grant Committee will also identify a cohort of 2-3 organizations that will receive multi-year grant commitments.
The one-time grants will support nonprofits’ work this coming year, while the flexible multi-year grants are designed to help nonprofits advance their long-term goals for themselves and the communities they serve.
How to Apply
Interested organizations must complete all the fields in the Letter of Interest application form by 5 p.m. on Thursday, August 7, 2025.
By October, The Community Foundation will follow up to inform the selected nonprofits if they are invited to submit a full proposal for funding.
