GRANT GUIDELINES AND APPLICATION PROCESS

The Stateline Community Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life in its geographic area including: Beloit, Brodhead, Clinton, Orfordville, Rockton, Roscoe and South Beloit. The Community Foundation makes grants in the areas of: education; health and human services; youth, family and aging; community development; arts and culture; and the environment. Grants are made for programs likely to make a clear difference in the quality of life for a substantial number of people.

The Community Foundation tends to favor projects that:

  • propose innovative, creative and practical solutions to both current and emerging community needs
  • promote cooperation among agencies without duplicating services
  • stimulate others to participate in problem solving
  • strengthen an agency’s effectiveness or stability
  • address themselves to prevention as well as remediation

Because of limited resources, the Community Foundation cannot respond favorably to all worthwhile causes. In general, the SCF does not support:

  • ongoing operating expenses
  • building funds or capital campaigns
  • political parties
  • endowments and debt reduction
  • scholarly research
  • annual fundraising drives
  • travel grants
  • projects outside its area of service
