Infrastructure Grants
Area nonprofits receive support to help maintain their operations.
Nonprofit organizations focus tremendous energy and resources on fulfilling their mission. Meanwhile, many struggle to cover needs that are less visible – such as office equipment, technology upgrades, and building repairs.
The Infrastructure Grant was created to help fill the gap and Broadview in the Community awards $100,000 annually. Below, meet several of the $10,000 winners and find out how they are making a difference.
Since the Infrastructure Grant was established in 2021, we have gained valuable insights from applicants to identify a need we are passionate about advocating. Safety. We believe that safety is a basic human right and that is why we are proud to launch the Broadview Safety Initiative Grant. A combined total of up to $50,000 will be awarded to multiple nonprofits for security enhancements to help protect their employees and the people they serve.
All Fall 2023 applicants will be notified of the results by October 27.
