Icicle Fund grant applications are open

We are happy to announce the opening of our 2023 Community Grant Program.  Application materials were made available October 15, 2022, with a deadline of December 1, 2022. Award recipients will be notified by April 1, 2023. The minimum grant request is $3,000.

Community Grants are one- or two-year grants for non-profit organizations who develop North Central Washington as a region where nature, the arts, and the area’s natural and human history encourage appreciation, understanding and stewardship of this special place. The grants support nonprofits in doing their most important work in the community in innovative and impactful ways by implementing not only the high-profile but also the hard to fund projects.

Grants are made possible by the generosity of our founder, Harriet Bullitt, and by the net profits from her gift of Sleeping Lady Mountain Resort to Icicle Fund.

Two types of funding are available through the Community Grants Program: Unrestricted and Project. Your organization’s mission and service areas as well as organization type determines what type of funding you can apply for.

The application process includes the option of a pre-application check-in meeting with Christine Morgan, optional application financial report coaching with the Fund’s staff, and the availability of the application questions in Spanish language.

Icicle Fund is rooted in the belief that strong connections of people to place is built and nurtured through artistic expression, imagination, understanding of past, experience in nature, and care for wildlife and natural landscapes. As a catalyst for partnerships and collaboration, Icicle Fund helps to nurture these connections and as a result, strengthens and sustains our beloved region of North Central Washington
