In 2008, Komen Greater NYC announced its Small Grants Program. This new initiative expanded the focus of our grant dollars and replaced the Conference Grants Program.
Please note: The Small Grants program no longer includes Travel Scholarships and Conference Grants.
Nonprofits in the Komen Greater NYC service area can apply for up to $5,000 for a Small Pilot or Capacity-Building Breast Health Program Grant. These grants are for organizations interested in beginning a new program or test new ideas that will increase the innovative capacity and effectiveness of breast health programs that serve low income and uninsured patients. Capacity Building is enhancing an organization’s ability to provide services by redesigning processes, implementing new practices, or developing collaborations or partnerships.
Some examples of specific projects that could be funded under these grant guidelines include:
Komen Greater NYC will consider Small Grants applications three times a year. Award notifications are generally made within six to eight weeks after the deadline.
The next application deadline is Friday, January 4, 2013. Please note that applications must be submitted electronically by 5:00pm EST on January 4, 2013 to be considered.
