Grant description

Twice-yearly $50,000 (over two years) general operating support grants for nonprofits serving marginalized and vulnerable Greater Boston residents. Recent rounds have focused specifically on immigrant-serving organizations (at least 60% immigrant clientele). The Spring 2026 round awarded $1.2M to 24 Massachusetts organizations in June 2026; a fall 2026 round is expected but not yet announced.

Eligibility

501(c)(3) nonprofits operating at least 3 years with year-round programming, primarily serving Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Plymouth, or Suffolk counties in Massachusetts. Recent rounds require at least 60% of clients to be immigrants.
