Wyoming Foundation Now Accepting 2024 Grant Applications

Warsaw, N.Y. — The Wyoming Foundation, a division of the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo, is accepting grant applications from nonprofit organizations serving Wyoming County for its 2024 grant cycle. Applications are due by 4 p.m. on April 29, 2024, and can be submitted online at www.wyomingfoundation.org.

For the 2024 competitive grants process, the Wyoming Foundation will give funding preference to grant applications focusing on at least one of its two priorities as determined by its 2023 strategic planning process:

  •       Educational opportunities for youth and adults
  •       Arts and cultural opportunities for youth and adults

The Wyoming Foundation is open to considering initiatives outside of its two priority areas that address a need and/or create an opportunity for residents and have a positive impact within Wyoming County. However, preference will be given to the two priorities listed above.

The maximum grant available through the Wyoming Foundation competitive process is $5,000. Approximately $31,000 is available to support 2024 competitive grants.

For nearly 50 years, the Wyoming Foundation has made the most of the generosity of its clients to benefit Wyoming County residents. With more than $4.8 million under its care, the Wyoming Foundation has supported a wide variety of cultural, educational and human services organizations that specialize in enhancing the County’s arts and cultural institutions, improving literacy and strengthening the County’s cradle-to-career pipeline.
