The NB3 Foundation is pleased to announce it’s Learning Community Action Grants Request for Application (RFA). The NB3 Foundation will award nine multi-year (2.5 year) grants of up to $100,000 each. This multi-year funding opportunity, made possible by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, will expand the NB3 Foundation’s support of Native American communities working to improve the health and wellness of young children (birth to 8 years old).
Applications will be accepted from tribes and Native-led organizations within Arizona, Navajo Nation and New Mexico that specifically focus on eliminating sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) and increasing consumption of safe drinking water and/or the promotion of breastfeeding for young Native American children.
The application deadline is July 15, 2016 at 5:00 pm MDT
All applications must be submitted through the NB3 Foundation’s online system. Additional information including eligibility criteria, the full RFA and link to the online application can be found on the NB3 Foundation’s Learning Community Action Grant page.
An informational webinar will be held on Wednesday, June 29, at 11:00 am MDT. Participation is encouraged and registration is required.
