RRF Foundation for Aging is accepting proposal applications for its next grant cycle. The deadline is August 3, 2020. RRF recently completed a strategic planning process that sharpened this commitment and focused its grantmaking on four priority areas:
- Caregiving
- Economic Security in Later Life
- Housing
- Social and Intergenerational Connectedness
While the priority areas reflect RRF’s primary funding interests, the foundation will remain open to considering compelling applications on other topics. Proposals for direct service projects are considered from organizations based in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Wisconsin, or Florida. Advocacy, training, and research projects, all with national relevance, are considered from organizations in any state. Organizational capacity building requests are accepted from nonprofits located in Illinois.
RRF offers an opportunity for applicants to submit a brief (1-3 pages) Letter of Inquiry (LOI) as part of its grantmaking process. Information about the optional LOI process can be found on RRF’s website. LOIs should be submitted by June 15, 2020 for the August 3rd proposal deadline.
