About GCF
Grangeville Community Foundation (GCF) is an affiliate of the Idaho Community Foundation and was created in 2012 by the people of Grangeville for the people of Grangeville. Our vision is to create a vibrant and healthy community now and for future generations.
Gifts are gathered and, in partnership with the Idaho Community Foundation, placed in an endowment fund. The fund is invested in order to grow over time – a permanent community savings account. A percentage of the fund's earnings are distributed as grants by a local volunteer board.
Average grants ranging from $250-$2,500 are awarded to eligible organizations or individuals within 5 miles of the Grangeville city limits or whose primary purpose is to benefit Grangeville. Since 2013, GCF has awarded over $130,000 to Grangeville organizations.
The grant application cycle is open from February 1st through March 15th. Please read the GCF Grant Guidelines before downloading and filling out the GCF Grant Application Form. Grants are awarded in late April/early May. Please contact our Grant Chairperson for more information.
