AHA Mini Grant
Alabama Humanities Alliance
NOTE: Applications accepted monthly, due on the first of each month.
Who & What We Fund
AHA awards grants to nonprofit community organizations to support a wide range of public humanities projects. Applicants are encouraged to develop imaginative proposals for a variety of audiences. Projects often include lectures, workshops, exhibitions, festivals, digital media and documentary films.
The three essential components of successful grant proposals are active public participation, strong humanities content and the direct involvement of humanities scholars.
Our Mission
AHA’s mission is to foster learning, understanding, and appreciation of our people, communities, and cultures. As the state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), AHA is the primary source of grants for public humanities programming in Alabama. AHA also initiates major programs and events in support of humanities topics and collaborates with other organizations to advance the humanities in both the academic and public arenas.
The Humanities
The humanities are often described as the study of how people process and document the human experience. Since humans have been able, we have used philosophy, literature, religion, art, history and language to understand and record our world. These modes of expression have become some of the subjects traditionally listed under the humanities umbrella. Exploring these subjects gives us the opportunity to think critically and creatively and to feel a sense of connection to those who have come before us, as well as to our contemporaries. According to NEH, the humanities disciplines include, but are not limited to, the study and interpretation of the following:
- Languages
- Literature
- History
- Philosophy and ethics
- Jurisprudence
- Archaeology
- Comparative religion
- Art history, theory, and criticism
- Social sciences employing humanistic methods
Mini-Grant
Designed for flexibility, mini grants feature a simplified, quicker application and funding process to support a broad range of projects. Mini Grants require a 1:1 cost share match, including cash and in-kind contributions.
To allow time for grant processing, project events must take place a minimum of 45 days after the submission deadline.
Project Requirements
Public Participation:
All projects must be open to the general public and should not be limited to members of a specific organization, scholars, or a campus community. While programs should aim to target a diverse audience, programs may be designed for a particular population, such as teachers, veterans, the incarcerated, or traditionally underserved groups.
In general, AHA will prioritize funding programs that are open to the public at no cost. Organizations may, however, charge modest fees when necessary. When charging fees, AHA encourages organizations to offer scholarships, free admission days, and other flexible admission policies to keep projects accessible to the broadest possible audience.
Humanities Content:
Applicants must ensure that one or more humanities disciplines are central to the project and that humanities themes and topics are adequately explored and interpreted. Humanities content should be presented in an engaging format that encourages critical thinking.
Humanities Scholars:
All projects must include the involvement of at least one humanities scholar to provide an in-depth knowledge of the humanities content and support adequate interpretation of the material. A humanities scholar is generally someone with an advanced degree in a humanities discipline, such as university faculty and researchers, or someone with extensive experience working within the humanities, such as tradition bearers, authors, historical witnesses, and others.
Humanities scholars may serve the project in a variety of roles, including as consultants or advisors, researchers or writers, presenters or moderators, and evaluators. Major and Media Grant projects must include at least one primary scholar, in addition to the project director, who is integrally involved in both the planning and implementation of the project. All applicants are encouraged to connect with additional scholars when appropriate.
Hearst Foundations Grants
William Randolph Hearst Foundation
Hearst Foundations' Mission
The Hearst Foundations identify and fund outstanding nonprofits to ensure that people of all backgrounds in the United States have the opportunity to build healthy, productive and inspiring lives.
Hearst Foundations' Goals
The Foundations seek to achieve their mission by funding approaches that result in:
- Improved health and quality of life
- Access to high quality educational options to promote increased academic achievement
- Arts and sciences serving as a cornerstone of society
- Sustainable employment and productive career paths for adults
- Stabilizing and supporting families
Funding Priorities
The Hearst Foundations support well-established nonprofit organizations that address significant issues within their major areas of interests – culture, education, health and social service – and that primarily serve large demographic and/or geographic constituencies. In each area of funding, the Foundations seek to identify those organizations achieving truly differentiated results relative to other organizations making similar efforts for similar populations. The Foundations also look for evidence of sustainability beyond their support.
Culture
The Hearst Foundations fund cultural institutions that offer meaningful programs in the arts and sciences, prioritizing those which enable engagement by young people and create a lasting and measurable impact. The Foundations also fund select programs nurturing and developing artistic talent.
Types of Support: Program, capital and, on a limited basis, general and endowment support
Education
The Hearst Foundations fund educational institutions demonstrating uncommon success in preparing students to thrive in a global society. The Foundations’ focus is largely on higher education, but they also fund innovative models of early childhood and K-12 education, as well as professional development.
Types of Support: Program, scholarship, capital and, on a limited basis, general and endowment support
Health
The Hearst Foundations assist leading regional hospitals, medical centers and specialized medical institutions providing access to high-quality healthcare for low-income populations. In response to the shortage of healthcare professionals necessary to meet the country’s evolving needs, the Foundations also fund programs designed to enhance skills and increase the number of practitioners and educators across roles in healthcare. Because the Foundations seek to use their funds to create a broad and enduring impact on the nation’s health, support for medical research and the development of young investigators is also considered.
Types of Support: Program, capital and, on a limited basis, endowment support
Social Service
The Hearst Foundations fund direct-service organizations that tackle the roots of chronic poverty by applying effective solutions to the most challenging social and economic problems. The Foundations prioritize supporting programs that have proven successful in facilitating economic independence and in strengthening families. Preference is also given to programs with the potential to scale productive practices in order to reach more people in need.
Types of Support: Program, capital and general support
Vulcan Materials Company Foundation Grant
Vulcan Materials Company Foundation
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Mission
The Mission Statement of Vulcan Materials Company states that Vulcan “will be a good corporate citizen in each community in which we operate. We will support and take an active part in public and charitable projects.” Vulcan established the Vulcan Materials Company Foundation in 1988 to assist in carrying out that mission. Because contributions made by the Foundation are corporate-based business dollars, it is essential that they be made in a planned and consistent manner that best serves the combined interests of Vulcan and the communities in which we operate.
Vision
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Support Priorities
The Foundation supports many types of worthwhile organizations that enhance the quality of life in Vulcan’s communities. The Vulcan Materials Foundation focuses on three areas in particular:
- Working with schools;
- Supporting environmental stewardship; and
- Encouraging employee involvement.
Education
A major focus of the Foundation is to play a part in maintaining or improving the quality of life and standard of living through the support of education.
Elementary/Secondary Education
The Foundation will consider proposals that provide public education programs and projects that enhance the quality of learning for all students. The Foundation works to support efforts to improve educational systems and individual schools in Vulcan’s communities by partnering with public schools located in its operating areas. Vulcan has adopted 276 schools in its communities through support from the Foundation. It is Vulcan’s goal to increase the number of its school partnerships every year.
The Foundation is also interested in efforts to encourage young people to develop an interest in math, science and business. The Foundation, therefore, gives consideration to proposals designed to help maintain students’ curiosity and excitement about the world of math and science and to explore the world of industry and business. The Foundation is particularly interested in helping young people and their teachers understand the relevance of math and science to society, and supports efforts to link these subjects to their application in the workplace. The Foundation also will consider programs designed to educate our students about the vital role of business and industry in society.
Higher Education
Higher education will play an increasingly critical role in helping the economy effectively compete in the global market. The Foundation recognizes the invaluable contributions made by institutions of higher learning in educating the nation’s future workforce.
The Foundation will consider proposals from those institutions located in states where the Company has facilities, particularly proposals that focus on science and engineering or improving public education. Although proposals for capital improvements will be considered, the Foundation prefers to fund projects that directly affect the outcome of the educational process, such as scholarships and science and technology programs.
Environmental Stewardship
The Foundation supports the philosophy that economic development and environmental stewardship have common goals. Responsible economic growth provides the resources necessary to be a good steward of the environment, while this stewardship helps to sustain growth.
There are important links between industry, the environment and technological innovation. A society that is better informed about environmental issues will be able to participate more effectively in public policy debates. Grantmaking will focus on organizations and programs that seek to develop an understanding of the connection between environmental stewardship and sustainable development.
The Foundation will consider supporting those environmental organizations that adhere to fact-based, balanced environmental principles.
Employee Involvement
Vulcan has a history of encouraging its employees to participate in volunteer activities in their communities. We recognize that our workforce offers a unique resource to provide leadership in the communities where we operate. Thus, high priority will be given by the Foundation to proposals from those organizations in which company employees are actively involved, especially in our focus areas of education and environmental stewardship.
Geographic Funding Priorities
In addition to the corporate headquarters, located in Birmingham, Alabama, there are eight Construction Materials divisions. Further, Vulcan has 400* active aggregates facilities located in 22 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Canada, and Mexico and the Bahamas. Regarding proposals submitted to the Foundation, first consideration will be given to those organizations that will benefit the communities where Vulcan employees live and work. The Foundation’s giving program is decentralized to spread ownership of the program to a wider base. Because unit managers are directly involved with the communities where they do business, decentralization enables the Foundation to be more informed about, and to better address, local needs. Proposals submitted to the Foundation should be sent directly to the charitable contributions officer in the appropriate geographical area.

Vulcan Materials Company Foundation Grant
Vulcan Materials Company Foundation
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Mission
The Mission Statement of Vulcan Materials Company states that Vulcan “will be a good corporate citizen in each community in which we operate. We will support and take an active part in public and charitable projects.” Vulcan established the Vulcan Materials Company Foundation in 1988 to assist in carrying out that mission. Because contributions made by the Foundation are corporate-based business dollars, it is essential that they be made in a planned and consistent manner that best serves the combined interests of Vulcan and the communities in which we operate.
Vision
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Support Priorities
The Foundation supports many types of worthwhile organizations that enhance the quality of life in Vulcan’s communities. The Vulcan Materials Foundation focuses on three areas in particular:
- Working with schools;
- Supporting environmental stewardship; and
- Encouraging employee involvement.
Education
A major focus of the Foundation is to play a part in maintaining or improving the quality of life and standard of living through the support of education.
Elementary/Secondary Education
The Foundation will consider proposals that provide public education programs and projects that enhance the quality of learning for all students. The Foundation works to support efforts to improve educational systems and individual schools in Vulcan’s communities by partnering with public schools located in its operating areas. Vulcan has adopted 276 schools in its communities through support from the Foundation. It is Vulcan’s goal to increase the number of its school partnerships every year.
The Foundation is also interested in efforts to encourage young people to develop an interest in math, science and business. The Foundation, therefore, gives consideration to proposals designed to help maintain students’ curiosity and excitement about the world of math and science and to explore the world of industry and business. The Foundation is particularly interested in helping young people and their teachers understand the relevance of math and science to society, and supports efforts to link these subjects to their application in the workplace. The Foundation also will consider programs designed to educate our students about the vital role of business and industry in society.
Higher Education
Higher education will play an increasingly critical role in helping the economy effectively compete in the global market. The Foundation recognizes the invaluable contributions made by institutions of higher learning in educating the nation’s future workforce.
The Foundation will consider proposals from those institutions located in states where the Company has facilities, particularly proposals that focus on science and engineering or improving public education. Although proposals for capital improvements will be considered, the Foundation prefers to fund projects that directly affect the outcome of the educational process, such as scholarships and science and technology programs.
Environmental Stewardship
The Foundation supports the philosophy that economic development and environmental stewardship have common goals. Responsible economic growth provides the resources necessary to be a good steward of the environment, while this stewardship helps to sustain growth.
There are important links between industry, the environment and technological innovation. A society that is better informed about environmental issues will be able to participate more effectively in public policy debates. Grantmaking will focus on organizations and programs that seek to develop an understanding of the connection between environmental stewardship and sustainable development.
The Foundation will consider supporting those environmental organizations that adhere to fact-based, balanced environmental principles.
Employee Involvement
Vulcan has a history of encouraging its employees to participate in volunteer activities in their communities. We recognize that our workforce offers a unique resource to provide leadership in the communities where we operate. Thus, high priority will be given by the Foundation to proposals from those organizations in which company employees are actively involved, especially in our focus areas of education and environmental stewardship.
Geographic Funding Priorities
In addition to the corporate headquarters, located in Birmingham, Alabama, there are eight Construction Materials divisions. Further, Vulcan has 400* active aggregates facilities located in 22 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Canada, and Mexico and the Bahamas. Regarding proposals submitted to the Foundation, first consideration will be given to those organizations that will benefit the communities where Vulcan employees live and work. The Foundation’s giving program is decentralized to spread ownership of the program to a wider base. Because unit managers are directly involved with the communities where they do business, decentralization enables the Foundation to be more informed about, and to better address, local needs. Proposals submitted to the Foundation should be sent directly to the charitable contributions officer in the appropriate geographical area.

AHA Major Grant
Alabama Humanities Alliance
Who & What We Fund
AHA awards grants to nonprofit community organizations to support a wide range of public humanities projects. Applicants are encouraged to develop imaginative proposals for a variety of audiences. Projects often include lectures, workshops, exhibitions, festivals, digital media and documentary films.
The three essential components of successful grant proposals are active public participation, strong humanities content and the direct involvement of humanities scholars.
Our Mission
AHA’s mission is to foster learning, understanding, and appreciation of our people, communities, and cultures. As the state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), AHA is the primary source of grants for public humanities programming in Alabama. AHA also initiates major programs and events in support of humanities topics and collaborates with other organizations to advance the humanities in both the academic and public arenas.
The Humanities
The humanities are often described as the study of how people process and document the human experience. Since humans have been able, we have used philosophy, literature, religion, art, history and language to understand and record our world. These modes of expression have become some of the subjects traditionally listed under the humanities umbrella. Exploring these subjects gives us the opportunity to think critically and creatively and to feel a sense of connection to those who have come before us, as well as to our contemporaries. According to NEH, the humanities disciplines include, but are not limited to, the study and interpretation of the following:
- Languages
- Literature
- History
- Philosophy and ethics
- Jurisprudence
- Archaeology
- Comparative religion
- Art history, theory, and criticism
- Social sciences employing humanistic methods
Major Grant
Major grants represent the majority of AHA grant proposals and support a wide variety of projects. Major Grants require a 1:1 cost share match, including cash and in-kind contributions. Sample Application
To allow time for grant processing, project events must take place a minimum of 60 days after the submission deadline.
Project Requirements
Public Participation:
All projects must be open to the general public and should not be limited to members of a specific organization, scholars, or a campus community. While programs should aim to target a diverse audience, programs may be designed for a particular population, such as teachers, veterans, the incarcerated, or traditionally underserved groups.
In general, AHA will prioritize funding programs that are open to the public at no cost. Organizations may, however, charge modest fees when necessary. When charging fees, AHA encourages organizations to offer scholarships, free admission days, and other flexible admission policies to keep projects accessible to the broadest possible audience.
Humanities Content:
Applicants must ensure that one or more humanities disciplines are central to the project and that humanities themes and topics are adequately explored and interpreted. Humanities content should be presented in an engaging format that encourages critical thinking.
Humanities Scholars:
All projects must include the involvement of at least one humanities scholar to provide an in-depth knowledge of the humanities content and support adequate interpretation of the material. A humanities scholar is generally someone with an advanced degree in a humanities discipline, such as university faculty and researchers, or someone with extensive experience working within the humanities, such as tradition bearers, authors, historical witnesses, and others.
Humanities scholars may serve the project in a variety of roles, including as consultants or advisors, researchers or writers, presenters or moderators, and evaluators. Major and Media Grant projects must include at least one primary scholar, in addition to the project director, who is integrally involved in both the planning and implementation of the project. All applicants are encouraged to connect with additional scholars when appropriate.

Walmart works to strengthen these communities through both retail business and community giving, and we support and invest in communities through local giving. The following programs have open application processes with specific deadlines for eligibility and consideration.
Local Community Grants
Each year, our U.S. stores and clubs award local cash grants ranging from $250 to $5,000. These local grants are designed to address the unique needs of the communities where we operate. They include a variety of organizations, such as animal shelters, elder services and community clean-up projects.
Areas of Funding
- There are eight (8) areas of funding for which an organization can apply. Please review the areas listed below to ensure your organization’s goals fall within one of these areas.
- Community and Economic Development: Improving local communities for the benefit of low-income individuals and families in the local service area
- Diversity and Inclusion: Fostering the building of relationships and understanding among diverse groups in the local service area
- Education: Providing afterschool enrichment, tutoring or vocational training for low-income individuals and families in the local service area

The Foundation is dedicated to providing financial assistance to organizations committed to improving our world. Solutions to the problems of today's world still lie in the values of innovation, practicality, hard work, and compassion.
The Foundation considers applications for grants in the following areas:
- Education
- Social Service
- Health care
- Civic and cultural
- Environmental
The categories above are not intended to limit the interest of the Foundation from considering other worthwhile projects. In general, the Foundation guidelines are broad to give us flexibility in providing grants.
The majority of our grants are made in the U.S. However, like Dr. Scholl, we recognize the need for a global outlook. Non-U.S. grants are given to organizations where directors have knowledge of the grantee.
Lawrence Foundation Grant
The Lawrence Foundation
The Lawrence Foundation is a private family foundation focused on making grants to support environmental, human services and other causes.
The Lawrence Foundation was established in mid-2000. We make both program and operating grants and do not have any geographical restrictions on our grants. Nonprofit organizations that qualify for public charity status under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code or other similar organizations are eligible for grants from The Lawrence Foundation.
Grant Amount and Types
Grants typically range between $5,000 - $10,000. In some limited cases we may make larger grants, but that is typically after we have gotten to know your organization over a period of time. We also generally don’t make multi-year grants, although we may fund the same organization on a year by year basis over a period of years.
General operating or program/project grant requests within our areas of interests are accepted. In general, regardless of whether a grant request is for general operating or program/project expenses, all of our grants will be issued as unrestricted grants.
AHA Media Grant
Alabama Humanities Alliance
Who & What We Fund
AHA awards grants to nonprofit community organizations to support a wide range of public humanities projects. Applicants are encouraged to develop imaginative proposals for a variety of audiences. Projects often include lectures, workshops, exhibitions, festivals, digital media and documentary films.
The three essential components of successful grant proposals are active public participation, strong humanities content and the direct involvement of humanities scholars.
Our Mission
AHA’s mission is to foster learning, understanding, and appreciation of our people, communities, and cultures. As the state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), AHA is the primary source of grants for public humanities programming in Alabama. AHA also initiates major programs and events in support of humanities topics and collaborates with other organizations to advance the humanities in both the academic and public arenas.
The Humanities
The humanities are often described as the study of how people process and document the human experience. Since humans have been able, we have used philosophy, literature, religion, art, history and language to understand and record our world. These modes of expression have become some of the subjects traditionally listed under the humanities umbrella. Exploring these subjects gives us the opportunity to think critically and creatively and to feel a sense of connection to those who have come before us, as well as to our contemporaries. According to NEH, the humanities disciplines include, but are not limited to, the study and interpretation of the following:
- Languages
- Literature
- History
- Philosophy and ethics
- Jurisprudence
- Archaeology
- Comparative religion
- Art history, theory, and criticism
- Social sciences employing humanistic methods
Media Grant
Media grants provide support for documentary film, television and radio programs, as well as interactive web-based projects. Media Grants require 2:1 cash match of third-party, non-federal funds.
To allow time for grant processing, project events must take place a minimum of 60 days after the submission deadline.
Project Requirements
Public Participation:
All projects must be open to the general public and should not be limited to members of a specific organization, scholars, or a campus community. While programs should aim to target a diverse audience, programs may be designed for a particular population, such as teachers, veterans, the incarcerated, or traditionally underserved groups.
In general, AHA will prioritize funding programs that are open to the public at no cost. Organizations may, however, charge modest fees when necessary. When charging fees, AHA encourages organizations to offer scholarships, free admission days, and other flexible admission policies to keep projects accessible to the broadest possible audience.
Humanities Content:
Applicants must ensure that one or more humanities disciplines are central to the project and that humanities themes and topics are adequately explored and interpreted. Humanities content should be presented in an engaging format that encourages critical thinking.
Humanities Scholars:
All projects must include the involvement of at least one humanities scholar to provide an in-depth knowledge of the humanities content and support adequate interpretation of the material. A humanities scholar is generally someone with an advanced degree in a humanities discipline, such as university faculty and researchers, or someone with extensive experience working within the humanities, such as tradition bearers, authors, historical witnesses, and others.
Humanities scholars may serve the project in a variety of roles, including as consultants or advisors, researchers or writers, presenters or moderators, and evaluators. Major and Media Grant projects must include at least one primary scholar, in addition to the project director, who is integrally involved in both the planning and implementation of the project. All applicants are encouraged to connect with additional scholars when appropriate.

Overview:
Hearst Foundations' Mission
The Hearst Foundations identify and fund outstanding nonprofits to ensure that people of all backgrounds in the United States have the opportunity to build healthy, productive and inspiring lives.
Hearst Foundations' Goals
The Foundations seek to achieve their mission by funding approaches that result in:
- Improved health and quality of life
- Access to high quality educational options to promote increased academic achievement
- Arts and sciences serving as a cornerstone of society
- Sustainable employment and productive career paths for adults
- Stabilizing and supporting families
Funding Priorities
The Hearst Foundations support well-established nonprofit organizations that address significant issues within their major areas of interests – culture, education, health and social service – and that primarily serve large demographic and/or geographic constituencies. In each area of funding, the Foundations seek to identify those organizations achieving truly differentiated results relative to other organizations making similar efforts for similar populations. The Foundations also look for evidence of sustainability beyond their support.
The Hearst Foundations fund cultural institutions that offer meaningful programs in the arts and sciences, prioritizing those which enable engagement by young people and create a lasting and measurable impact. The Foundations also fund select programs nurturing and developing artistic talent.
Types of Support: Program, capital and, on a limited basis, general and endowment support
The Hearst Foundations fund educational institutions demonstrating uncommon success in preparing students to thrive in a global society. The Foundations’ focus is largely on higher education, but they also fund innovative models of early childhood and K-12 education, as well as professional development.
Types of Support: Program, scholarship, capital and, on a limited basis, general and endowment support
The Hearst Foundations assist leading regional hospitals, medical centers and specialized medical institutions providing access to high-quality healthcare for low-income populations. In response to the shortage of healthcare professionals necessary to meet the country’s evolving needs, the Foundations also fund programs designed to enhance skills and increase the number of practitioners and educators across roles in healthcare. Because the Foundations seek to use their funds to create a broad and enduring impact on the nation’s health, support for medical research and the development of young investigators is also considered.
Types of Support: Program, capital and, on a limited basis, endowment support
The Hearst Foundations fund direct-service organizations that tackle the roots of chronic poverty by applying effective solutions to the most challenging social and economic problems. The Foundations prioritize supporting programs that have proven successful in facilitating economic independence and in strengthening families. Preference is also given to programs with the potential to scale productive practices in order to reach more people in need.
Types of Support: Program, capital and general support

Overview:
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Mission
The Mission Statement of Vulcan Materials Company states that Vulcan “will be a good corporate citizen in each community in which we operate. We will support and take an active part in public and charitable projects.” Vulcan established the Vulcan Materials Company Foundation in 1988 to assist in carrying out that mission. Because contributions made by the Foundation are corporate-based business dollars, it is essential that they be made in a planned and consistent manner that best serves the combined interests of Vulcan and the communities in which we operate.
Vision
Helping Build Stronger Communities
Support Priorities
The Foundation supports many types of worthwhile organizations that enhance the quality of life in Vulcan’s communities. The Vulcan Materials Foundation focuses on three areas in particular:
- Working with schools;
- Supporting environmental stewardship; and
- Encouraging employee involvement.
Education
A major focus of the Foundation is to play a part in maintaining or improving the quality of life and standard of living through the support of education.
Elementary/Secondary Education
The Foundation will consider proposals that provide public education programs and projects that enhance the quality of learning for all students. The Foundation works to support efforts to improve educational systems and individual schools in Vulcan’s communities by partnering with public schools located in its operating areas. Vulcan has adopted 276 schools in its communities through support from the Foundation. It is Vulcan’s goal to increase the number of its school partnerships every year.
The Foundation is also interested in efforts to encourage young people to develop an interest in math, science and business. The Foundation, therefore, gives consideration to proposals designed to help maintain students’ curiosity and excitement about the world of math and science and to explore the world of industry and business. The Foundation is particularly interested in helping young people and their teachers understand the relevance of math and science to society, and supports efforts to link these subjects to their application in the workplace. The Foundation also will consider programs designed to educate our students about the vital role of business and industry in society.
Higher Education
Higher education will play an increasingly critical role in helping the economy effectively compete in the global market. The Foundation recognizes the invaluable contributions made by institutions of higher learning in educating the nation’s future workforce.
The Foundation will consider proposals from those institutions located in states where the Company has facilities, particularly proposals that focus on science and engineering or improving public education. Although proposals for capital improvements will be considered, the Foundation prefers to fund projects that directly affect the outcome of the educational process, such as scholarships and science and technology programs.
Environmental Stewardship
The Foundation supports the philosophy that economic development and environmental stewardship have common goals. Responsible economic growth provides the resources necessary to be a good steward of the environment, while this stewardship helps to sustain growth.
There are important links between industry, the environment and technological innovation. A society that is better informed about environmental issues will be able to participate more effectively in public policy debates. Grantmaking will focus on organizations and programs that seek to develop an understanding of the connection between environmental stewardship and sustainable development.
The Foundation will consider supporting those environmental organizations that adhere to fact-based, balanced environmental principles.
Employee Involvement
Vulcan has a history of encouraging its employees to participate in volunteer activities in their communities. We recognize that our workforce offers a unique resource to provide leadership in the communities where we operate. Thus, high priority will be given by the Foundation to proposals from those organizations in which company employees are actively involved, especially in our focus areas of education and environmental stewardship.
Geographic Funding Priorities
In addition to the corporate headquarters, located in Birmingham, Alabama, there are eight Construction Materials divisions. Further, Vulcan has 400* active aggregates facilities located in 22 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Canada, and Mexico and the Bahamas. Regarding proposals submitted to the Foundation, first consideration will be given to those organizations that will benefit the communities where Vulcan employees live and work. The Foundation’s giving program is decentralized to spread ownership of the program to a wider base. Because unit managers are directly involved with the communities where they do business, decentralization enables the Foundation to be more informed about, and to better address, local needs. Proposals submitted to the Foundation should be sent directly to the charitable contributions officer in the appropriate geographical area.
* Updated after the acquisition of U.S. Concrete

Overview:
Walmart’s more than 2 million associates are residents, neighbors, friends and family in thousands of communities around the globe. Walmart works to strengthen these communities through both retail business and community giving, and we support and invest in communities through local giving. The following programs have open application processes with specific deadlines for eligibility and consideration.

AHA Media Grant
Alabama Humanities Alliance
Next predicted deadline: May 1, 2024 (Pre proposal)
Later predicted deadlines: Jun 1, 2024 (Full proposal)
Grant amount: Up to US $10,000
Fields of work: Media Arts
Applicant type: Nonprofit
Funding uses: Project / Program, Education / Outreach
Location of project: Alabama
Location of residency: Alabama
Overview:
Who & What We Fund
AHA awards grants to nonprofit community organizations to support a wide range of public humanities projects. Applicants are encouraged to develop imaginative proposals for a variety of audiences. Projects often include lectures, workshops, exhibitions, festivals, digital media and documentary films.
The three essential components of successful grant proposals are active public participation, strong humanities content and the direct involvement of humanities scholars.
Our Mission
AHA’s mission is to foster learning, understanding, and appreciation of our people, communities, and cultures. As the state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), AHA is the primary source of grants for public humanities programming in Alabama. AHA also initiates major programs and events in support of humanities topics and collaborates with other organizations to advance the humanities in both the academic and public arenas.
The Humanities
The humanities are often described as the study of how people process and document the human experience. Since humans have been able, we have used philosophy, literature, religion, art, history and language to understand and record our world. These modes of expression have become some of the subjects traditionally listed under the humanities umbrella. Exploring these subjects gives us the opportunity to think critically and creatively and to feel a sense of connection to those who have come before us, as well as to our contemporaries. According to NEH, the humanities disciplines include, but are not limited to, the study and interpretation of the following:
- Languages
- Literature
- History
- Philosophy and ethics
- Jurisprudence
- Archaeology
- Comparative religion
- Art history, theory, and criticism
- Social sciences employing humanistic methods
Media Grant
Media grants provide support for documentary film, television and radio programs, as well as interactive web-based projects. Media Grants require 2:1 cash match of third-party, non-federal funds.
To allow time for grant processing, project events must take place a minimum of 60 days after the submission deadline.
Project Requirements
Public Participation:
All projects must be open to the general public and should not be limited to members of a specific organization, scholars, or a campus community. While programs should aim to target a diverse audience, programs may be designed for a particular population, such as teachers, veterans, the incarcerated, or traditionally underserved groups.
In general, AHA will prioritize funding programs that are open to the public at no cost. Organizations may, however, charge modest fees when necessary. When charging fees, AHA encourages organizations to offer scholarships, free admission days, and other flexible admission policies to keep projects accessible to the broadest possible audience.
Humanities Content:
Applicants must ensure that one or more humanities disciplines are central to the project and that humanities themes and topics are adequately explored and interpreted. Humanities content should be presented in an engaging format that encourages critical thinking.
Humanities Scholars:
All projects must include the involvement of at least one humanities scholar to provide an in-depth knowledge of the humanities content and support adequate interpretation of the material. A humanities scholar is generally someone with an advanced degree in a humanities discipline, such as university faculty and researchers, or someone with extensive experience working within the humanities, such as tradition bearers, authors, historical witnesses, and others.
Humanities scholars may serve the project in a variety of roles, including as consultants or advisors, researchers or writers, presenters or moderators, and evaluators. Major and Media Grant projects must include at least one primary scholar, in addition to the project director, who is integrally involved in both the planning and implementation of the project. All applicants are encouraged to connect with additional scholars when appropriate.
