Summary
A grant opportunity is available to help support the work of nonprofit organizations that are making a difference in education and community development. This opportunity is intended to enhance access to high-quality STEM learning and provide broader community support in regions where the funding organization has a presence.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit groups that are located in or serve areas where employees of the sponsoring entity live and work. The focus is on programs that create measurable, meaningful impact, particularly those promoting science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education, or addressing essential local needs such as job readiness and basic services. Organizations must demonstrate a strong connection to the community and a clear plan for how the grant funding will be used.
Funding is typically awarded on an annual basis and is designated for specific programs or projects, rather than general operating support. Awards are made in amounts that may vary but often fall within a moderate funding range suitable for well-scoped initiatives with clear outcomes. Projects supported in the past have ranged from classroom enhancements to workforce preparation and skill-building initiatives.
The application process begins with a brief eligibility check, followed by submission of a full proposal. Deadlines for submissions are generally set once a year, and selected recipients are notified following a comprehensive review.
This grant is an excellent fit for organizations seeking to implement targeted programs that expand educational access, promote innovation, and support community resilience. If your work intersects with these goals, and your team is seeking funding to bring a specific idea to life, this opportunity may offer the financial support needed to move forward. The grant encourages innovation and collaboration within local communities and supports efforts that uplift and empower individuals through education and essential services.
Those working in Youth/Out-of-School Youth and located in Missouri may meet the eligibility criteria for this grant. To browse other funding opportunities suited to your focus areas, visit The Grant Portal and try the Search Grant tool.
