Best Grants for LGBTQ Nonprofits in Rhode Island

The AmeriCorps State and National Rhode Island Grants, offered by ServeRI, empower organizations to tackle community needs by recruiting and training AmeriCorps members. These grants aim to enhance civic engagement and support pathways for participants to advance their careers or education. Successful proposals must demonstrate how AmeriCorps service positions address specific community challenges while providing meaningful benefits to the members. This initiative fosters collaboration among nonprofits, schools, and government agencies to improve lives and strengthen communities across Rhode Island.

Nonprofits, government units, and fiscally sponsored groups serving LGBTQ communities in Rhode Island can seek US $2,500 - US $10,000 for projects and capacity-building efforts. The Rhode Island Community Foundation’s Equity Action program supports advocacy, community education, board and program development, fundraising systems, and other activities that strengthen organizations improving life for LGBTQ Rhode Islanders.
