Grants at the Wichita Community Foundation
As our organization has evolved, so has our grant making.
Donor Funds
In response to suggestions from donors, the Wichita Community Foundation distributes grants monthly. These grants are recommended to nonprofit agencies in Wichita, other parts of Kansas and several locations throughout the United States.
Competitive grant making
We currently conduct competitive grant rounds for fund holders upon request. Each of the funds have specific guidelines and application instructions. More information is available on the specific fund's page.
Please note: our application process has changed. Upon creating an account, the Grant Portal gives you access to our open funding opportunities. We strongly encourage applicants to review the User Guide and watch tutorial videos prior to applying.
WCF Emergency Fund
The Wichita Community Foundation understands that unexpected financial circumstances can arise for nonprofit organizations. The WCF Emergency Fund provides relief assistance to agencies in the Wichita and Sedgwick County area. Our online application process is short and our response time is quick.
WCF Unrestricted Fund
Donors have the opportunity to give, without restriction, their charitable dollars directly to the Wichita Community Foundation. We mobilize these charitable dollars through our Strategic Initiatives. These financial gifts are made at the discretion of the WCF Board of Directors. Applications are not being accepted at this time.
