Nonprofit Funding Opportunities for 2026!

  • Feb 11
  • 1 min read

Updated: Mar 2

In the 2026 calendar year, there are three chances to apply for project grants: March 1, July 1, and October 1.



Grant submissions in March and October require sponsorship with a local Civitan club. The project grant round closing on July 1, 2026, is also open to nonprofits that without a Civitan club sponsorship, whether due to lack of proximity or other factors. Grant submissions are categorized as follows, with the primary criterion being support for I/DD: Accessibility & Engagement; Educational Spaces; Program Area Improvements, and Outreach & Education.


There is in-depth information on our website where our new and improved Submittable (formerly WizeHive) grant portal can be accessed for both Nonprofit Project grants and Civitan Participating Club grants (via the Civitan Club Grants page).

Last year, the FCIDD allocated more than $330,000 in project grant funds to 16 nonprofit organizations. This year, the budget for program grants is set at $750,000, so we're looking forward to working with you to hit this target and enhance your I/DD programs and projects!
