Grants: Powering Fort Worth’s Arts Organizations

Arts Fort Worth Community Impact Funds

The mission of Arts Fort Worth is to promote, nurture, and support the arts in Fort Worth. Arts Fort Worth’s competitive grants programs serve this mission by supporting local arts organizations and making the artistic programming they provide accessible to everyone in our city.

Apply for both operating and outreach project support in one application!

Community Impact Funds provide fundamental mission support through unrestricted funding to established nonprofit arts organizations for general operations, administration, and programming costs. This grant opportunity combines the intent of the two grant opportunities previously called CORE and CORE Plus into one unrestricted grant.

Zicklin Contracting Water Damage Restoration Awareness Scholarship

We’ve seen projects where homeowners had to choose between fixing a leaking foundation and replacing unsafe wiring. Where clearing HPD violations NYC delayed recovery for months. Where budget constraints meant skipping basement waterproofing, only to face flooding again the following year.

The industry needs voices who can see the big picture — how one decision impacts ten others. This scholarship is designed to reward a student who not only understands restoration but can communicate it in a way that changes how people approach it.

We want writing that doesn’t just diagnose problems but proposes realistic, actionable solutions. Could a hybrid financing model make advanced restoration affordable? Could collaboration between home remodel contractors and environmental engineers reduce long-term costs? Could integrating legal compliance checks early in the project avoid HPD violation delays? These are the kinds of angles that make an essay stand out.

Friends of NRA

Friends of NRA is the National Rifle Association’s premier fundraising program, supporting the future of shooting sports. Since day one, Friends of NRA has been a 100% grassroots effort fueled by a united front to secure the Second Amendment and raise money for the shooting sports.

Committee volunteers are appointed to State Fund Committees to make recommendations for local grant funding in areas such as youth education, women-focused clinics, law enforcement training, hunter safety, range improvement, firearms and marksmanship training and safety. Recognizing the impact American youth has on the future of the shooting sports, State Fund Committees frequently recommend grants for youth programs, allocating the most significant portion of monies to this vital area.

Grant awards fund activities and support programs in the United States to promote firearms and hunting safety, to enhance marksmanship skills of those in the shooting sports, and to educate the public about firearms in their historic, technological and artistic context.
