Driving University Impact: Expanding the Public Exchange Network Grant
How the Public Exchange Network Works
No single university – even a large R1 – has enough faculty expertise available to meet the needs of every partner. The Public Exchange Network was designed to help universities work together seamlessly to build robust partnerships and generate more collective impact. Universities joining the network are independent but affiliated members, with full control over their own program and project portfolios. As a national network with local, on-the-ground capacity, Public Exchange Network members can also share approaches that work, scale solutions to common problems, and build cross-regional partnerships together.
As an institutional partner in the Public Exchange Network, universities will build capacity to develop, test and implement solutions to the most urgent problems in their regions and beyond. Universities joining the Public Exchange Network get:
Public Exchange Network Expansion grants will cover 75-80% of the minimum estimated annual costs for two years to launch a new Public Exchange. To launch a Public Exchange, universities must have the following in place: (1) a staff executive director with experience launching and leading social impact partnerships, (2) a project seed fund, and (3) a modest operations budget. We also recommend some in-kind project management support from an existing university staff member. The grant includes a two-year Public Exchange Executive Director (ED) compensation subsidy of $300,000 to launch the Public Exchange on campus, and a 2-year license to use the Public Exchange brand. New Public Exchange Network members will also receive ongoing support and guidance from current Public Exchange leadership and staff at USC and WashU, including recruitment support and intensive training for hiring and onboarding an executive director, a sub-site on the Public Exchange website, incubation and project management support from current Public Exchange staff, and a suite of tools for developing and implementing Public Exchange projects.
Agricultural Enterprise Fund
The Agricultural Enterprise Fund (AEF) is an incentive program that supports Governor Lee’s priority of job creation and economic development by facilitating agricultural development in Tennessee. It is administered by the Department of Agriculture in conjunction with the Department of Economic and Community Development.
The AEF awards grants to starting or expanding agricultural, food, and forestry businesses; nonprofits, local governments, and other entities in Tennessee, or those whose project will be located in Tennessee. The program focuses on value-added and processing projects that benefit other producers or forest landowners.
Successful grant recipients must demonstrate a strong potential for impact on local farm income, access to markets, increased capacity or agricultural innovation.
Project Categories
Projects funded by the Agricultural Enterprise Fund must match the description of at least one of the following four categories. Many projects will potentially match the description of more than one category and applicants should indicate so on their application.
Infrastructure Planning and Development Division
The Infrastructure Planning and Development Division (IPDD) collaborates with state agencies, the legislative and judicial branches, local public bodies, and Tribes to provide comprehensive planning and funding assistance for capital projects listed in the Infrastructure Capital Improvements Plan (ICIP).
Our mission is to expertly manage the planning and funding process for all capital outlay projects, ensuring that they are fully funded through various appropriations and financing mechanisms, including the Capital Appropriation Bill, the Reauthorization Bill, the GOB Bill, the HB2 Specials, federal grant and loan programs, state grant and loan programs, and any Junior Bill.

About MSHDA
The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA), established in 1966, provides financial and technical assistance through public and private partnerships to create and preserve safe and decent affordable housing, engage in community economic development activities, develop vibrant cities, towns and villages, and address homeless issues.
MSHDA's loans and operating expenses are financed through the sale of tax-exempt and taxable bonds and notes to private investors, not from state tax revenues. Proceeds of the bonds and notes are loaned at below-market interest rates to developers of rental housing, and also fund home mortgages and home improvement loans. MSHDA also administers various federal housing programs.
Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program
The ESG program provides HUD funding to organizations that support individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness. ESG-funded activities include Street Outreach, Emergency Shelter, Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Re-Housing, HMIS, and administrative support, all aimed at helping households regain stable housing as quickly as possible.
If you or someone you know is experiencing homelessness, please contact your local Housing Assessment and Resource Agency (HARA).

Spirit of Togetherness Award
In a fast-changing world shaped by digitalisation, mobility, and evolving social norms, creating meaningful human connection has never been more important or more powerful. Moments of genuine exchange, shared experience, and belonging are what bring communities to life.
At Pernod Ricard, this is what we call conviviality: the simple yet powerful act of bringing people together to share meaningful moments and build authentic connections not only in grand celebrations but in everyday moments, shared meals, conversation, culture and small acts of togetherness that foster trust, joy and understanding.
Today, communities are evolving rapidly. While these shifts create new opportunities, they also can also lead to isolation, division and a loss of meaningful connection and challenge how we come together and maintain a sense of belonging. Across the world, young adults are stepping forward not just as participants in society, but as architects of more inclusive and connected communities.
A new generation of leaders is reimagining how we gather and share. They are creating spaces across communities, workplaces and digital platforms where diversity is celebrated, voices are heard, and people feel they belong. Through their initiatives, they are bridging cultures, generations, and identities, showing that connection is something we actively create, nurture, and sustain.
Building on the success of the WE Award 2025, Pernod Ricard is proud to partner once again with One Young World to launch the Spirit of Togetherness Award 2026.
This award recognises five outstanding young leaders who are creating opportunities for connection and belonging within their communities. Their work demonstrates that conviviality can be a powerful force for positive change, strengthening social cohesion, fostering inclusion, and enriching cultural life.
Each award recipient will receive:
By spotlighting these changemakers, we aim to inspire a broader movement, one that places human connection, empathy, and shared experiences at the centre of progress. Because the future we want to build is not only more sustainable, but also more connected, inclusive, and convivial.
SteamPlant Fee Assistance Grant Program
Financial support for public performance-based arts events to reduce fees for use of the SteamPlant in Salida.

Through charitable contributions to the Salida Arts & Culture Fund, eligible organizations may receive grants that offset a portion of SteamPlant facility fees, making the venue more accessible and affordable.
The program is made possible through a partnership between the City of Salida and the Chaffee County Community Foundation (CCCF). The City has committed $5,000 in matching funds to match the first $5,000 donated by the community, helping build support for local arts and cultural programming.
While the Salida Arts & Culture Fund supports a variety of arts and culture initiatives, SteamPlant fee assistance is currently the fund's primary focus. Donations are tax-deductible and restricted to purposes approved by the Arts & Culture Advisory Committee (ACAC), which annually reviews community needs and available resources to guide funding priorities.
