The Alaska Community Foundation seeks to support 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations and tribal organizations in their fundraising efforts, awareness campaigns, and community events. We will support organizations whose work aligns with our Mission, Vision, and Values. Limited resources necessitate focused giving in our communities, and support is generally granted on a one-time basis.

Things to Consider

Award amounts will be between $250 and $1,500, with an average award of $500 for events occurring in 2024 only.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when applying for a donation:

• Please submit your request at least 6 weeks before your event
• Once submitted, all requests are personally reviewed
• Please review our eligibility requirements
• All requests must be submitted at least 6 weeks prior to the event or print deadline
• You will receive a response via e-mail
• You can check the status or your request through your online profile
