Fund for York County Grant Opportunities
The Fund for York County is the foundation’s fund to address the needs of a changing York County. This Fund’s focus areas are: Education, Workforce Development and Downtown and Neighborhood Revitalization.

Larger Grants
Grants up to $20,000 may be considered throughout the year if they demonstrate scale and scope in Fund for York County’s focus areas. We also can consider larger grants that create systemic change, including:
- Larger multiyear grants that build collaborative groups’ capacity to work in a collective impact framework
- Programs identified by a collaborative group as having the highest priority
