The Junior League of Albuquerque (JLA) is pleased to announce that its 2021 Community Endowment Fund Grant Application is accepting submissions. JLA is seeking to support a local Community Partner(s) by awarding operational funding of up to $6,000 for organizations that complement our mission. JLA is looking for organizations who support the healthy development of children and young people and assist them in achieving their personal and professional dreams. This includes underserved children and their families, including but not limited to low income families, children with disabilities, racial and ethnic minorities, survivors of violence and other risk factors like literacy, isolation and/or homelessness. JLA believes it is vital to invest in our community and continue to support the successful partnerships between non-profit organizations.

This year has been an incredible challenge for nonprofits to provide their direct and much needed programming and services across our community. Tell us what operational funding you really need in order to work toward your mission. Due to COVID many organizations have been faced with unbudgeted expenses that are now critical to operations.

Grant applicants must be a non-profit organization in the Albuquerque-Metro Area with the ability to demonstrate an interest in a partnership with the Junior League of Albuquerque.

Please complete the grant application and submit by 11:59 pm MST Friday, May 7, 2021 to Michelle McMullan at mdebele@gmail.com.

Applicants will be notified of JLA’s decisions no later than Friday, May 14, 2021. Although not required, JLA invites successful applicants to be recognized at a League General Membership Meeting later in the year.
