The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly impacted our community and the nonprofit sector in Santa Barbara County. The rapid response grant program is a part of the COVID-19 Joint Response Effort. Organizations that are awarded grants are prioritized in the following order:
Over the last couple of months, the COVID-19 Joint Response Effort has prioritized organizations that were meeting emergency needs and adaptive services. We will continue to focus on those areas, but we are now also prioritizing organizational operating support requests. If your organization applied to the COVID-19 Response Grant cycle in the past, you are still eligible to submit an application. With approval from organizations, we are sharing requests for funding for all three areas with funders of the COVID-19 Joint Response Effort to maximize funding opportunities for organizations.
Please view our COVID-19 Nonprofit Resource page for additional links and resources. As always, we encourage you to connect with program staff at communityengagement@sbfoundation.org prior to submitting an application.
The COVID-19 Response Grant program has a rolling deadline. We encourage you to review the grant guidelines carefully and prepare your information for the application. Please contact us with any questions.
