Types of Grants Available from VCTF
The Vermont Children’s Trust Foundation is pleased to offer grant opportunities for 2024. Please note that VCTF will give preference to NEW program ideas, conceived at the local level- we seek innovative solutions to address community needs. We generally do not provide organizational support. VCTF does not fund individuals or for-profit organizations.

Program Grants:
One Year Program Grants: These grants are available to support the planning and implementation of new prevention programs. Think pilot program. If successful, organizations may later apply for a three year grant to sustain programming. These grants are up to $10,000.
Three Year Program Grants: These grants are up to $15,000 for the first year, with a possibility for continued funding for up to two (2) additional years. These grants are provided to organizations that have conceptualized a program idea and have confidence in their ability to create and sustain the program into the future. The amount of funding provided in years two and three of these grants will be reduced by approximately 15% each year as it is expected that the organization will obtain funding from additional sources as the program expands.
